Inside Loris Karius' Liverpool downfall and resurrecting career with Newcastle

Newcastle United have been linked with a move for ex-Liverpool shot stopper Loris Karius after he departed Anfield earlier this summer. The German goalkeeper is reportedly on the verge of signing a short-term deal with the Magpies, following an injury to Karl Darlow in training.

There's no timeline on when the current Magpies number two will return, but the impending arrival of 29-year-old Karius would suggest Darlow will be ruled out until the new year. A Champions League finalist in 2018 with the Reds, two mistakes in the final in Kyiv would ultimately cost him his Liverpool career.

ChronicleLive spoke with Liverpool Echo reporter Mark Wakefield for an insight into what Loris Karius might bring to Newcastle.
