Sporting director indicates he will open talks with Liverpool over signing midfielder in the summer

Marko Grujic has been in fine form for Hertha Berlin this season and sporting director Michael Preetz has publicly said that the Bundesliga outfit would be delighted to be able to hold onto him beyond this season.

The Serbian midfielder has struggled to break into Jurgen Klopp’s starting XI at Liverpool despite objectively holding all the tools necessary to become a great Premier League midfielder.

His season-long loan with Hertha Berlin has shown how good he can be as he has turned in some top performances including one during which he helped round off an incredible team goal against Schalke.

Hertha Berlin sporting director Michael Preetz told Kicker: “First and foremost, we’re happy that we have Marko. I’d always prefer that a player helps me out for a year than not at all. We’ll certainly talk to Liverpool about the next season.

“All the guys can help us make a difference in a season when something extraordinary is possible.

“That is our goal, and it would be wonderful to successfully take the next step together.”
