# Leeds United join the race for Marko Grujic

Leeds United have joined the race to sign Liverpool midfielder  Marko Grujic on loan, according to [reports](https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-gossip-tuesday-liverpool-player-eyed-by-leeds-boro-still-want-everton-duo-danny-rose-linked-to-germany-1-9299670).

Liverpool recently rejected a loan offer from Torino for Grujic, but that does not mean that he isn’t available this month.

The Italians wanted to take the midfielder on loan for the season, with an option to buy him for €10m at the end of the season, but the Reds have rejected that offer.

The Serbian international spent the second part of last season on loan at Cardiff City, but he apparently rejected the chance to rejoin Neil Warnock’s side for the full 2018/19 campaign.

Torino wanted to take the 22-year-old for the entire season before having the chance to sign him on a permanent deal for €10m, but Liverpool will not allow that to happen.

It still remains likely that the midfielder will be loaned out before the end of August and Leeds are hoping to bring the Serbian to Elland Road.
