Grujic,21, has made just made 13 appearances for Liverpool and five have come this season, but tellingly, the Serbian never started a Premier League game.

His agent Zoran Stojadinovic now insists his man needs to leave to get some game time, but the midfielder must stay in England to aid his development.

Stojadinovic told Serbian newspaper Blic: “Grujic has to go somewhere in January in a loan, in a team where he will play.

"It must be an English club, so as not to make a mistake like Lazar Markovic did."

Stojadinovic added: "Had Lazar been my client, I would never advise him to leave England.

"He changed the country, the style of football, the temperament, the climate, and therefore his return to Liverpool was an impossible mission.

"To return to Grujic, he is very much appreciated in Liverpool and therefore he did not go anywhere because they did not want to let him go.

"But he needs more minutes in the field and that's why the loan is the best solution for him in January to return to Liverpool after his return to the starting line-up."
