Liverpool’s Marko Grujic scored a peach of a header in his side’s 4-0 demolition of Spanish giants Barcelona at Wembley on Saturday.
Signed for a fee of only £4 million, Marko Grujic’s fantastic performances in Liverpool’s pre-season friendlies suggest the Reds may well have made the best bargain buy of the transfer window.
On Saturday, Grujic took things to another level as he scored an impeccable header against La Liga champions Barcelona. Lazar Markovic played in a brilliant ball and the Serbian perfectly headed the ball into the back of the net, leaving goalkeeper Claudio Bravo no chance to get his hands on the ball.
Take a look:
Liverpool fans on social media found it difficult to contain their excitement after watching that moment of magic from the 20-year-old:
This boy Grujic is a legend already. Special player ?

Markovic delivers a delicate chip to pick out Marko Grujic at the back post who finds the back of the net with a fantastic looping header.

I don’t mean to exaggerate but I think that Grujic goal was the best header of all time.
