Newcastle United have extended Loris Karius’ contract until the end of the season.
The former Liverpool goalkeeper joined on a short-term contract in September following an injury to back-up Karl Darlow.
Martin Dubravka’s return from a brief loan at Manchester United might have suggested Karius would depart again upon the conclusion of his initial deal.
But Newcastle announced on Thursday that the German – who is yet to make a competitive appearance – will be kept around until June.
The news comes after speculation began linking Darlow with several Championship clubs.
