Loris Karius sues Besiktas after claiming he hasn’t been paid for four months
The German goalkeeper, 25, lodged a formal complaint to Fifa last month as he is still waiting for around £300,000 in wages
LORIS KARIUS is suing Besiktas after he claimed he hasn't been paid by the Turkish club for FOUR months, according to reports in Germany.
The German goalkeeper, 25, lodged a formal complaint to Fifa last month as he is still waiting for around £1million in unpaid wages.
Bild report that Karius has now taken legal action against the Turkish club.
Karius joined the Besiktas on a two-year loan deal last summer after Liverpool signed Alisson from Roma.
And his time in Turkey has been anything but easy, with boss Senol Gunes slamming his recent performances.
Gunes even claimed he would drop Karius if he could, saying: "He was at fault for the goals he conceded.

"Karius has gone a bit stagnant, something is wrong with his electricity, motivation, enthusiasm for the game.
"It has been like that since the beginning. He does not really feel a part of the team.
"It's something we haven't been able to work out and, of course, I am partly to blame for this.
"Something is wrong, he has also been unlucky. [He] is talented but it hasn't worked out and we have a problem.
"Let me put it this way, if I still had Tolga available I would play him."
