I haven’t joined Liverpool to play second fiddle to Simon Mignolet, insists Loris Karius

New Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius has warned Simon Mignolet he has come to Anfield to be the club’s number one.

The 22-year-old German has already taken the shirt, having obtained the agreement of manager Jurgen Klopp, and he wants the position which goes with it.

Mignolet’s position as first-choice has not been threatened since arriving three years ago despite a number of unconvincing performances.
