Turkish outlet Fotomac (h/t Daily Mail) claims that Besiktas are unhappy with the performances of on-loan Liverpool star Loris Karius and want to cancel his loan deal with the Reds.
The report claims that they want to sign a striker on loan and Divock Origi is the target for the Turkish side.
Karius made a couple of howlers in the Champions League final against Real Madrid. The 25-year-old was then sent on a two-year loan to the Turkish giants, but he has made a few mistakes there too.
Origi, for his part, hasn’t featured for the senior side this season, and will find it difficult to play regular first-team minutes thanks to the likes of Roberto Firmino and Daniel Sturridge impressing.
Alisson has taken over from Karius at Liverpool, and the Brazilian has been excellent for the Reds. It will be interesting to see what Besiktas do with the German keeper, but a number of Liverpool fans weren’t all that pleased with this report coming up.
I understand Besiktas wanting to send Karius back to Liverpool and then replacing him with Origi on loan instead. Origi is a much better goalkeeper in all fairness.

😅 Besiktas might be cancelling Loris Karius’ loan early and swapping him for Divock Origi…

It’s a shame to see Karius at an all time low in confidence and form, he was good for Mainz in the bundesliga, but I can’t ever see him playing for Liverpool with Allison on the form he is on, IMO Liverpool should sell karius and let him get some confidence back

One player I feel Klopp can’t get the best out off and it’s his signing… 😕
