Liverpool are set to hand Loris Karius an unlikely career lifeline after Newcastle keeper Nick Pope was sent off against the Reds on Saturday.
Karius spent six years at Anfield, though he did not feature for Jurgen Klopp's men after the 2018 Champions League final. He finally left on a free transfer for Newcastle in last summer's transfer window, though is still yet to make his debut.
Extraordinarily though his debut could now come in the Carabao Cup final, following Pope's red card against Karius' former club. The Reds travelled to St James' Park to take on Newcastle in the Premier League on Saturday evening.
