I have not seen him this season where it seems like he has strangely gone out of favor at Dynamo Kiev but I did watch him in the Europa League last season and of course previously for Montpellier where he was very impressive and one of the best players in France playing a significant hand in shockingly winning the league.
A clear number 10 type who doesn't seem like the most mobile but is excellent at seeing openings and exploiting them, instigating passing combinations with great first touches and passes. Him and Giroud worked really well together at a high technical level being close to each other on the pitch
Unfortunately he was on the bench in the Serbia (the winners) U20 World Cup games that I watched late in the tournament. Looking at who played the most in that tournament it seems like just about everyone has now moved but mostly lower profile deals apart from now Grujic and standouts Savic and the not yet to move but heavily rumored to bigger clubs (Dortmund looks like the favorite) likely to happen this month Zivkovic.

The most concrete case study is the Serbian central midfielder, Marko Grujic from Crvena Zvezda (Red Star) Belgrade. More possibly know the player from the Serbian team that won the U20 World Cup in the summer. Grujic was admittedly not the most prominent in this championship, but several top club scouts rightly chose to continue follow the player on the basis of what they saw in the Championship in New Zeeland. Because it was, in the months after the World Cup feat where 19-year-old really got up to speed. After he was given a freer role in midfield at the legendary club, where the 192 cm-large Serb also showcased their offensive potential.
Ball Sure, elegant and calculated
At first glance it is obvious that Grujic is a well-trained and intelligent player. He operates rarely in small margins - which is not unusual for a young player from the Balkans - and to succeed in England, he must be willing to choose more risky solutions to the opposing half. The player describes himself as an "8-er" in style of play, but at this time there is no reason to expect a new Steven Gerrard - which would only be missing since there are very few midfielders in the world as it has extreme, explosive running power which featured the former captain when he was on top. Above an "all-action" midfielder can either - at least to begin with - expect a ball sure, quite elegant and "calculated" type.
The pace is a challenge
The challenge for Grujic will obviously be getting used to the fierce pace as central midfielder men must master to succeed in the Premier League. Not only do you only a blitz second on the ball before delivery, but without the ball it is also important to be quickly up the pressure on the ball carrier. Especially on these two points, the transition from Serbian football undoubtedly great. For that reason, this is a player who will need time and if Grujic were playing to a permanent place in midfield before 2017/18 season, this must be considered a huge bonus.

Happy that he's more of a number 10, Max Meyer has taken a step forward this year imo but he's played way too many games because of no alternatives. Doesn't seem much of a risk here (ofc without an option to buy, also limited reward)
