Super-agent Kia Joorabchian has warned Manchester City that they are unlikely to see the best of new striker Jo until January.
City boss Mark Hughes paid a club record £18m for the Brazilian earlier this month.
But Joorabchian, who brokered the deal between City and CSKA Moscow, has warned City fans not to expect too much too soon.
"Jo has all the attributes you need to succeed in the Premiership - he's fast, strong and a superb finisher," Joorabchian told Undercover Sport.
"But he is going to the Olympics and won't get a full pre-season. That will mean he's not at his best until January.
"Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano found it difficult when they first went to West Ham and missed out on pre-season, but we saw the best of Tevez at the end of that season, when he was magnificent."
