Hertha Berlin midfielder Marko Grujic sees his future at parent club Liverpool.

Grujic has revealed his sees his long-term future at Liverpool after detailing a pre-season ambition with Jurgen Klopp's Reds squad.

He told ESPN: "I think [there is a] plan for the future. From every chat we had so far, I thought that they really think about me.

"Maybe I was expecting to play a bit more, but so far I'm happy how I improved in that time. Of course, my target was to be a regular player of Liverpool and I'm still thinking I can do that.

"In life, it never comes without any issues or problems. It will come, I'm sure. I'm still young, 22, and the time works for me."

The 22-year-old has earmarked the pre-season schedule as his big opportunity to make his mark.

"We have a lot of options in midfield and we will see next season," he added. "But competition for places is always good and natural. I'm looking forward.

"We know how Liverpool play with one No.6 and a double eight and I'm not really bothered about that. I can play both positions.

"In pre-season we will see what is the best for me and for the team."
