Werder Bremen coach Florian Kohfeldt admits their interest in Liverpool midfielder Marko Grujic is over.

The Serb chose to sign on-loan with Hertha Berlin this summer ahead of Werder.

And Kohfeldt concedes: "You cannot rule out anything, but that would be pure speculation to think about it."

The coach also said: "He is a very good player, but he is now a player from Hertha and in the summer probably will again be a Liverpool.

"This is not an issue for us now."
