Where does it say that he'l wear the number 1 jersey?

If you watched De Gea at Atletico he was something special as a keeper. I don't see that so far in Karius.

De Gea struggled with the physicality of challenging for the ball in the air when he came. his reflex saves, awareness and distribution was already top-notch.

I'd say thats the same for Karius though. His distribution and cross collecting requires more work though. I think he'll be a very good signing for Liverpool but he'll struggle initially.

That definite? Germany have quite a few good young goalkeepers

Not sure, just read it on Empire of the Kop or something like that. Only three players above the age of 23 allowed though and ter Stegen is already 24, Horn the same age as Karius. It's not confirmed but there is a strong possibility he'll go.

Yeah, Leno's 24 too. Thought both he and ter Stegen were still 23.

He's not mignolet.
By virtue of that sentence alone he is an upgrade .

comparing him to DDG is setting the bar way too high. He is an upgrade on Mignolet and we´ll see in 1-2 years how he develops. There is little risk involved if they get him for 10m€.

Can we not call him Dorkus Malorkus ?

Karius will be 100% in the squad.
It is his dream to play in the tournament and it's unlikely Horn will go because Cologne will lose aready other players for the tournament.
