Liverpool midfielder Marko Grujic admits he's happy with praise from manager Jurgen Klopp.

Klopp picked out Grujic for praise ahead of the trip to Leicester City this weekend.

The young midfielder stated to the Liverpool Echo: “It was good to hear. I've got to keep believing in myself and keep working hard but like I said we're still playing Champions League, FA Cup and the Premier League, so we will need to show the power of the squad and we will need every player.

“I had a good pre-season this year, played some games to get ready and have been playing for the U23s. Like every player I hope that I will start more games and hope I can show the manager and everybody else that I'm ready for the biggest games in a Liverpool shirt.

“I'll hope that'll I'll get the chance to start more games."
