# Roma preparing permanent offer for Loris Karius

Italian giants Roma are thought to be preparing a permanent offer for Liverpool keeper Loris Karius, according to Fotomac, cited by [Anfield HQ](https://www.anfieldhq.com/roma-interested-in-signing-liverpool-goalkeeper-this-summer/).

The reports claim that boss Paulo Fonseca has identified Karius as a replacement for Robin Olsen, with Roma now preparing an offer for the German during the current window.

Jurgen Klopp brought in current first-choice keeper Alisson from Roma last summer, so the Reds may be willing to repay the favour to the Serie A side this summer.

The German is currently in the middle of a two-year loan spell with Turkish giants Beskitas, so a possible deal could prove complex.

The 25-year-old, who initially joined Liverpool from Mainz back in 2016, enjoyed a productive season in Turkey following his disappointing campaign with the Reds the year before.

No fee has yet been discussed, however, Liverpool would more than likely be looking to receive a minimal fee of £5m, the sum the Reds paid Mainz three years ago.
