Come to Besiktas, Loris Karius.
The Istanbul giants offered the Liverpool shot-stopper a footballing lifeline, signing Karius to a two-year loan deal Saturday. The Reds confirmed the move with a statement.
Karius' move to Turkey is the result of a domino effect this summer that saw Brazilian No. 1 Alisson move to Anfield and Besiktas 'keeper Fabri enlist with Fulham.

The change of scenery could benefit the 25-year-old after a disastrous Champions League final performance saw him make two glaring errors that resulted in Real Madrid goals.
Karius' loan move will become permanent in 2020 if the player appears in an undetermined number of matches, according to the Liverpool Echo's James Pearce.
