According to a report by ESPN, Marko Grujic could be on his way out of Liverpool this summer. Atletico Madrid are interested in the 22-year-old but Liverpool want €40m (over £34.5m) for him.

The young midfielder only cost Liverpool £5.1m (BBC Sport) from Red Star Belgrade in January 2016. But the Reds could make nearly £30m in profit if Atletico meet their demands.

And considering he has only played 14 games for Liverpool’s first-team, this could be seen as a shrewd piece of business.

But some fans would like to see Grujic given a go in the first-team next season. The Serbia international has proven his worth in the Bundesliga this season.

In 19 games, he has scored four times and provided an assist while helping loan club Hertha Berlin compete for Europe.

But Grujic faces an uncertain future. Will Jurgen Klopp give him a chance in the senior side? Or will he be facing a permanent exit this summer?

Here are several tweets from Liverpool fans discussing rumours linking Atletico Madrid target Grujic with a £34.5m summer departure.
