Kari: I was heat victim
LORIS KARIUS claims Liverpool replaced him with £56million Alisson because of outside pressure after his Champions League Final gaffes
The German keeper moved to Besiktas on a two-year loan last month, shortly after the Reds snapped up Brazil No.1 Alisson from Roma.
Karius suffered concussion in May’s Kiev final and blundered for Real Madrid goals from Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema.
He said: “The pressure in the media and the public increased and Liverpool had to react. It wasn’t a good situation, but these things happen in football.”
