Liverpool midfielder Marko Grujic has been impressing on loan.
Liverpool midfielder Marko Grujic signed on loan with German side Hertha Berlin last month.
The Reds felt a spell in the Bundesliga was more beneficial than returning to play for Neil Warnock’s Cardiff City.
So far the decision has paid off for Grujic, who has played a key role in Hertha Berlin’s form.
Hertha sit in second place, just two points behind leaders Bayern Munich after four games.
Grujic’s performances have won praise, with manager Pal Gardai quoted by The Guardian.
He said: “Marko is an exceptional player in midfield.
“I’ve never said that about anyone since I was coach here. It’s not normal for us to be able to get him.”
The bad news is Grujic suffered an injury at the weekend, with a bad tackle injuring his ankle.
He faces spending the next few weeks on the sidelines as a result.
Despite this setback, the signs are positive, and Grujic will hope that Hertha can keep up their good form and he can slot back into a winning team upon his return.
