Loris Karius Transfer from Schalke 04 to Torino

Loris Karius was rumored to be linked with a move to Torino in Italy. However, Schalke 04 announced the official extension of his contract until 2027, indicating their confidence in him and ending the speculation about his potential move to Torino. Karius had returned to Bundesliga at the beginning of the year after a four-year absence and quickly secured a starting position.

Tuttomercato reports on Loris Karius's search for a new team and potential interest from Torino. Loris Karius is seeking a new team after signing with Schalke 04 and is considered as an alternative by Torino's technical director Davide Vagnati. Karius is known for his previous high-profile mistakes in 2018 and his recent relationship with Diletta Leotta.

Torino has expressed interest in Loris Karius, who signed a short-term contract with Schalke 04 from January 14 to June 30. Due to the brevity of his contract, he may become a low-cost acquisition at the season's end. Despite securing the starting position at Schalke and performing commendably, a calf injury has stalled any contract extension negotiations with the club. Karius, formerly with Liverpool, managed to clinch the starting role at Gelsenkirchen, demonstrating his capability to at least meet Zweite Bundesliga standards with four appearances, during which he conceded five goals and achieved one clean sheet. Unfortunately, a calf injury, specifically a rupture of the fibula in his left leg, prematurely ended his season. The injury occurred just before halftime in an away match against SpVgg Greuther Fürth and was confirmed through medical examination, preventing him from playing for the rest of the season. Torino's interest in Karius arises as he regains fitness, potentially making him an appealing option for a free transfer.
