Jürgen Klopp comments on Marko Grujic capture

Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp has commented on the signing of Marko Grujic from Red Star Belgrade.

Although not identified by the boss, he says he likes what he sees and is looking forward to watching him develop.

Klopp said: “We’re very pleased because Marko is a big talent and we’ve seen him a lot of times.

“When I came here, our scouts showed me some footage of a very skilled player from Red Star Belgrade. We watched it, we spoke to him, we met each other – he’s a good boy, a young boy but plays an important role at the moment at Red Star, who are the best team in Serbia.

“To describe him, I would say he’s a tall boy, but quick and good at technical things. He can play passes and can dribble. But he is young, so he has to develop. He will do this, so everything is okay.”

Grujic will return to Red Star until the end of the season.
