The marriage proposal to Diletta Leotta? «I asked him in a simple and traditional way – Loris Karius told La Gazzetta dello Sport – it seemed like the right moment to both of us. We are good together and it was a natural decision.”
Children
Becoming Aria’s dad certainly changed his life. «It’s something special, which completely changes you as a person because you know that from that moment you have responsibilities and you always want to be there for her. It’s wonderful to see her grow.” Like Diletta, Loris also dreams of an extended family, perhaps a boy, a future football goalkeeper like his father who today plays in the Premier League, for Newcastle. “Now I enjoy Aria and I’m happy, but I think it would be nice to have another child.”
INSIGHTS
Life far away
But the first thing to resolve, he continues, is the life of a commuter. «Living apart is not easy, we are both busy with work, on our days off we try to see each other but we don’t always succeed.
In England the calendar is very busy. Sometimes we meet once a week, sometimes less. It’s a bit heavy.” Now his dream is to come and play in Serie A, to be as close as possible to his family: «Certainly, it would be an excellent solution if there were good options for me, regardless of the closeness to my family…» .
With Diletta, does Loris talk about football? «Not much also because we don’t have much time to spend together. We sometimes watch matches in the evening, but I prefer to take a break from work when I’m at home.” They don’t talk about football but his partner encourages him and supports him. «She can’t help me play football, but I know I can always talk to her. It’s nice to have someone at home who is always there for you, it’s a huge help. She does everything for me: it’s a fantastic feeling.” Is Loris Karius jealous? «Diletta is very well known in Italy but when we met for the first time in Paris I didn’t know much about her nor she about me. I later discovered what she did, everything started very naturally between us. We are two normal people who love each other and were lucky enough to find each other”
