Club career

Bravo

Gril joined NK Bravo in 2016 at the age of 15 from NK Bistrica.[2] On 26 September 2018, 17-year old Gril got his official debut for Bravo against NK Dob in the Slovenian Second League.[3] He played 18 league games in that season and helped the team promoting to the Slovenian PrvaLiga.

Hoffenheim

At the end of the summer transfer window 2019, German club TSG 1899 Hoffenheim showed interest in Gril.[4] However, he stayed in Bravo. But the rumors appeared again in November 2019, saying that Hoffenheim already had an agreement with Bravo for the transfer of Gril.[5] The deal was officially announced on 13 December 2019[6] and became a record deal for Bravo.[7]

Gril signed a deal with Hoffenheim until the summer 2024 but stayed on loan at Bravo for the rest of the season.[8] He played only one game during the last six months of his time at Bravo, before returning to Hoffenheim in July 2020.[9] In September 2020, he struggled with back problems which kept him out for some time.[10]
