Liverpool midfielder Emre Can is backing Loris Karius to be a big hit in England.

Can has given his backing to new Liverpool goalkeeper and fellow German Karius following his summer move from Mainz - although the stopper is recovering from injury and is yet to feature.

"I know Loris from the national team, he is a very good goalkeeper.

"The standard in Germany is very high and in the last two or three years, he made very big steps in his career. He has been a little bit unlucky with the injury, of course, but he will come back and do very well."
