He was Jurgen Klopp’s first signing as Liverpool boss back in January but Reds midfielder Marko Grujic has warned fans not to expect his best form until next season, report Reuters.
A £5.1 million arrival from Red Star Belgrade, Serbian international Grujic is still only 20-years-old and has admitted the step up in class has been particularly challenging.
In Liverpool’s four Premier League fixtures so far, Grujic has been an unused substitute apart from 13 minutes he received in a cameo in the 2-0 loss to Burnley whereby the Reds were chasing the game.
Very much a work in progress kind of signing with Klopp also boasting Georginio Wijnaldum, Jordan Henderson, Emre Can, James Milner and Adam Lallana who can play in Grujic’s position, it appears the young Serb knows exactly what his role is this term.
There is no doubting that Grujic is learning in a positive environment with Liverpool having started the season well with notable four-goal victories over last season’s title challengers Arsenal and Leicester City.
