Liverpool midfielder Marko Grujic signs contract, joins Hertha Berlin on loan

Marko Grujic has signed a new contract with Liverpool and joined Hertha Berlin on a season-long loan.

Grujic put pen to paper on a new deal at Liverpool -- lasting till 2023 -- before completing his temporary switch to the Bundesliga.

The 22-year-old turned down loan moves to Cardiff City and Middlesbrough earlier in the summer as he held out for a move abroad. Hertha Berlin beat off competition from CSKA Moscow and Lyon for the midfielder's signature.

Serie A side Torino also made an attempt to sign the Serbia international last week, but Liverpool quickly turned down their approach as it included a €10 million buyout option at the end of the loan.
