Liverpool have agreed a deal to sign goalkeeper Loris Karius from German side Mainz 05 on a long-term contract, the Premier League club said yesterday.
The 22-year-old, who has represented Germany at under-21 level, made 34 Bundesliga appearances last season and kept nine clean sheets.
The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, but British media reported that Liverpool would pay £4.7 million for the keeper.
“I am delighted we have signed Loris, he has had a fantastic season with Mainz,” Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp said.
