Grondona was a larger than life figure who was known as"the Godfather" and ruled Argentine football for more than three decades. "I find it super interesting to imagine Don Julio telling the story from the other side," Armando Bo, the series' creator, director and executive producer, told Reuters."Because he tells it in a relaxed way, having lived it and with nothing to lose."
