Lorius Karius plays it cool at Besiktas unveiling after completing two-year loan move from Liverpool

Goalkeeper Loris Karius played it cool at his Besiktas unveiling after completing his two-year loan move from Liverpool.
The 25-year-old posed for pictures dressed in a black suit, white trainers and some sunglasses at the Vodafone Park Stadium in Istanbul.
The shot-stopper was also snapped with his new No 1 shirt of the Turkish side alongside Besiktas' president Fikret Orman.

LORIS KARIUS STATS (2017-18)

Appearances: 33
Clean sheets: 16
Goals conceded: 31
Karius was in the stands to watch his new team-mates lose 3-2 to Antalyaspor on Sunday.
The German — 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 Brazil international Alisson. 
He was left out of Liverpool's squad to play at Crystal Palace last 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 earned a crucial 1-1 draw away from home in the first leg of their Europa League play-off against Partizan Belgrade last week and play the second leg on Thursday.

Tekashi 6ix9ine Drives The Flashiest Ferrari You've Ever Seen

Tekashi's car seriously matches his hair. When you think of 6ix9ine, you probably picture his obnoxiously-colored rainbow hair and teeth in your mind. The man has built a brand off of a combination of his unique image, his stylistic blend of different musical genres, and his Instagram trolling. Currently on a trip to Dubai, Tekashi has been keeping his fans updated with his latest stunting news.
