Karius jets off to Turkey as Besiktas loan move beckons

Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius is on his way to Turkey after agreeing a loan switch to Besiktas for the next two seasons.

Karius muscled his way ahead of Simon Mignolet in the pecking order during the last campaign, and was Jurgen Klopp's first choice as the Reds battled to the Champions League final.

But two big mistakes against Real Madrid drew unwanted attention to the German, who also suffered concussion during that game.

Klopp reacted in the summer by signing Roma's Alisson, who briefly became the most expensive goalkeeper in the world before Kepa's arrival at Chelsea.
