Play on Los Angeles Galaxy, where next to Riqui Puig His performance has skyrocketed: 15 goals and five assists in 27 games. So much so that the team has recruited him for this window after being out of their orbit since June 2023.

For the Serbian it was just another game until the morning of the game he called Vlade DivacSerbian basketball legend, NBA champion, who lives in Los Angeles.
I had known for days that Divac was going to the game. He was his guest. The call was to see if Joveljic I could do something because there was a special person who was in LA and wanted to go to football. Dejan, while driving, asked who it was. Upon hearing that it was Novad Djokovic He had to stop the car to avoid having an accident.
The game arrived and the score was 1-0 at 75 minutes. He celebrated by imitating a tennis shot and a basketball throw in honor of his guests. But the party was not complete, because when two minutes of 90 had passed, they tied Messi to pass Jordi Alba.
Months later, Djokovic returned the gift by inviting the Galaxy forward and his entire family to the Miami Open.
