Loris Karius asks for Liverpool return?

Loris Karius has reportedly asked Liverpool to cancel his loan period at Besiktas.

The Merseyside giants opted to allowed Karius to link up with the Turkish outfit for a two-year period before the start of this season, and the stopper has made 27 appearances in all competitions.

However, a number of mistakes have resulted in Karius coming in for criticism from manager Senol Gunes, and it appears that the German is keen on a return to Anfield.

According to Turkiye Gazetesi, Karius wants to be given the chance to find a new club during the summer transfer window rather than see out a second season at the Istanbul outfit.

Karius may also be considered as the new deputy for Alisson Becker, with Simon Mignolet having just over a year remaining on his contract.
