Goal.com is reporting that there is a deal in process between Liverpool and Red Star Belgrade for midfielder Marko Gruijic. The deal is expected to be signed and sealed within the next few days and Marko has been rumored to be taking over the no. 8 shirt and get an annual salary of €1.2 million (£5 million deal overall).
