Liverpool misfit Karius to join Union Berlin on season-long loan

Liverpool misfit Loris Karius will complete a season-long loan move to Union Berlin this week.

The goalkeeper, who has not featured competitively for the Reds since his nightmare in the 2018 Champions League final, has been back on Merseyside this summer after spending the last two seasons with Besiktas.

Karius has trained with Jurgen Klopp’s senior squad at Melwood but was informed upon his return that he would need to find a new club, with Alisson Becker and Adrian established as first and second-choice at Anfield.
