Man Utd make ‘serious inquiry’ into former Liverpool star who spent over 5 years at Anfield to bolster midfield

MANCHESTER UNITED are reportedly considering a move for ex-Liverpool midfielder Marko Grujic.

The 26-year-old Serbian international joined Porto in 2020 and has racked up 94 appearances for the Portuguese giants.

But before beginning life in the Primeira Liga, he spent five years at Anfield.

He only racked up 16 appearances across three seasons, scoring one goal.

And Grujic was eventually farmed out on loan to Hertha Berlin, before permanently leaving for Porto.

Now he could be poised for a Premier League return as understand that Man Utd are interested in him.

Erik ten Hag's men face competition from Inter Milan to secure his signature.

Both United and Inter have already made contact about a potential deal in the summer.

But Grujic joining the Red Devils could leave some Liverpool fans gutted as he was a fan favourite despite only playing a handful of games each season.

It is also understood that he was a Liverpool fan as a child.

So it remains to be seen whether he would be willing to join their bitter rivals United.

Grujic has contributed four goals and three assists in 105 appearances for Porto.

He won the league title with the Portuguese side last season as they finished six points ahead of Sporting Lisbon.
