The whistle has blown on Marko Grujic’s time at FC Porto. The club announced Monday night that his contract ended right away. It’s a quick goodbye for the Serbian midfielder. His deal was set to expire at season’s end anyway. But now, with this immediate split, he’s free to chase a new challenge. Reports from Record suggest he’s on his way to AEK Athens.
Grujic was no stranger to the pitch, yet manager Francesco Farioli couldn’t find a spot for him. It’s a tough spot for any player, especially one who earned a good wage packet. Despite recent bench time, Grujic’s tenure wasn’t without its shine. He pulled on the FC Porto shirt 140 times, netting four goals. He also helped fill the trophy cabinet: one league title, three Portuguese Cups, three Super Cups, and even a League Cup.
FC Porto extended their best wishes. They hope he finds success in whatever comes next, both in his career and personal life.
