Karius undergoes medical at Besiktas after joining on loan from Liverpool

Goalkeeper Lorius Karius underwent his medical at his new club Besiktas on Sunday.
The shot-stopper was given a hero's welcome after he officially left Liverpool to join the Turkish side on a two-year loan deal on Saturday.
The 25-year-old was all smiles as he completed tests at a hospital in Istanbul.
Karius - who made two costly errors in the Champions League final defeat by Real Madrid in May - has been replaced as Liverpool's No 1 by Alisson Becker.
The German was left out of Liverpool's squad to play at Crystal Palace on Monday night with Simon Mignolet drafted in to sit among the substitutes.
Karius has made 49 appearances for the Reds since joining the club from Mainz in 2016.
He had won the No 1 jersey last season but his Champions League final errors and a poor pre-season led him to drop out of contention.
Besiktas contested the first leg of their Europa League play-off against Partizan Belgrade on Thursday and earned a crucial 1-1 draw away from home.
The Turkish powerhouse continue their league schedule at home to Antalyaspor on Sunday evening.
