Loris Karius looks unrecognisable as he bulks up after years on the Liverpool sidelines

Loris Karius has not played a match for Liverpool in nearly four years but he has clearly put that time on the sidelines to good use, judging by his latest Instagram post.

Karius remains a Liverpool player despite not having played for the club since his disastrous performance in the Champions League final against Real Madrid in May 2018. The 28-year-old goalkeeper has spent the past three years away from Anfield, on loan with Besiktas and Union Berlin, but is currently back training with the Reds.

He had been expected to leave the club on a free transfer in January, but his £65,000 per week wages proved to be a stumbling block to an early departure. As a result, he is stuck training at Kirkby, behind Alisson, Caoimhin Kelleher and Adrian – and promising young goalkeepers Marcelo Pitaluga and Harvey Davies – in Jurgen Klopp’s pecking order.
