Substituting the partial differentiation

I am trying to substitute the partial differential equation but I can't find appropriate function.
Here is the sample code I have to modify.
syms u v x(u,v) y(u,v) z(x,y)
z = exp(x*y) ;
x = 2*u+v ;
y = u/v ;
dx = diff(x,u)
dy = diff(y,u)
dz_du = diff(z,u)
dz_du = subs(dz_du, {diff(x,u),diff(y,u)}, {dx, dy})
The result is
dx =
2
dy =
1/v
dz_du(u, v) =
exp(x(u, v)*y(u, v))*(y(u, v)*diff(x(u, v), u) + x(u, v)*diff(y(u, v), u))
dz_du(u, v) =
exp(x(u, v)*y(u, v))*(y(u, v)*diff(x(u, v), u) + x(u, v)*diff(y(u, v), u))
The point is, those diff(x(u, v), u) & diff(y(u, v), u) haven't substituted.
(what I want is the result below)
exp(x(u, v)*y(u, v))*(y(u, v)*2 + x(u, v)*1/v)
*At first, I changed the last line
subs(dz_du, {diff(x(u,v),u),diff(y(u,v),u)}, {dx, dy})
but it only returns error.
** I found some answers asking the version of my MATLAB and it is R2021a
Is there any way to guide matlab to substitute those partial differentiations?

It seems you have defined z = exp(x*y) first. You should define it after x and y. Then do the diff(z,u) which will give the same result but in u and v. There's no need for subs in the equation
