Este es el verdadero renacer.

A Loris Karius siempre lo persiguieron sus errores en la final de la Champions League 2018 contra el Real Madrid, que le costaron la Copa al Liverpool.

Desde ahí, su carrera se fue para abajo. Entre el 2020 y el 2024 jugó apenas 5 partidos (4 en Unión Berlín y 1 en Newcastle).

De hecho, a mediados de 2024 estuvo 6 meses sin equipo y pensando en el retiro.

El Schalke 04 pensó en él y lo fichó en enero de 2025 para intentar volver a Primera. Allí se consolidó y volvió a disfrutar de la pelota.

Hoy, Schalke asciende a la Bundesliga con Karius como figura, siendo el portero con más vallas invictas en el torneo (12).

Miren cómo lo festeja con su hinchada, que lo aplaude.

A veces hay que volver un poco atrás para tomar nuevamente impulso.

Daleeee Kariussss. 👏

@mickbcfc1975 Gone up to £17 a game… it’s not bad thing at all - they probably looking at it from majority season ticket holders and that age group massively underpaying - increase revenue = increased expenditure

Leicester: Deducted 6 points due to financial breaches.

Sheffield Wed: Deducted 18 points due to financial breaches.

West Brom: Deducted 2 points due to financial breaches.

Everton: 8 points deduction due to financial breaches.

Forest: 4 point deduction for financial breaches.

Chelsea: €31m fine and suspended transfer ban over 2 years for 74 breaches of financial FairPlay.

City: Yet to be charged for 115 breaches of financial FairPlay.

A total of 189 charges in the fa cup final but it’s Arsenal everyone wants to see fail and say are ruining the game with our set piece play. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Looks like Sampsted is off then. On top of being a tidy player who never really did anything wrong, I have to say I thought his attitude was exemplary.

A top professional, unlucky not to play a lot more games for us. Wishing him all the luck in the world #BCFC

RE: yesterday. Still unhappy, particularly 1st goal after 5 minutes and ANOTHER from a corner. The kind of goals we’ve conceded before. Bin Zonal Marking, it doesn’t work! That is down to CD. He persists with it. Man-marking is the way to go. CD is flogging a dead horse #BCFC

@KingyyyXCV @UNDEFEATEDinc Yeahhh it’s gutting tbh being free all day and tomorrow and then the pick up time is the only time I’m at work :/ is what it is but rules are strict ig just glad I won’t have to pay for nothing

[James Quinney @JQBCFC]

This is the same boy… omg 😭😭❤️

He recovered from Leukaemia 🥹🙏🏼

[Graham Woodward @GOWoodward]

I get the Kyogo frustration but can we please stop with the ‘I wish we still had May’ bollocks. I loved Alfie but he’s struggling to get in the Huddersfield side and he wouldn’t get into the positions to have the chances that Kyogo gets. He might not be able to hit a barn door

[Madrid Zone @theMadridZone]

🚨Ian Wright defends Jude Bellingham after the criticism from English media:

“They need to create this kind of controversy because there's nothing else to say until the World Cup, so it's going to continue like this until the World Cup. They hate the fact that they can't reach him. They hate the fact that they can't negatively influence his club career like they've done with so many others before him. A young man blessed, endowed with overflowing talent and love.”

[Football Insider @footyinsider247]

🚨 EXCLUSIVE! Gary O’Neil is a top contender to replace Chris Davies as the Birmingham City manager, sources have told Football Insider.

🚨 Davies is under growing pressure from the club’s owners after a disappointing start to the season.

🚨 Sources say that Birmingham have a firm interest in ex-Wolves and Bournemouth manager O’Neil and that he is in the frame to take over, should under-fire Davies be dismissed.

@LukeKiely96 Very different players, may offers link up play as well as his movement in the box whereas kyogo relies on his instinct where we are currently unable to find him and create chances - much to do deeper in the pitch imo

[Brad @Bradley_AJ]

So we drew our first game, won in the first round, won our next two games and then lost in the second round… #bcfc
