LORIS KARIUS' girlfriend has urged him to leave "uncomfortable" Newcastle behind.

This is despite Toon boss Eddie Howe reportedly wanting to keep the German.

Karius, 29, made just one appearance during the season, miraculously coming against Manchester United in the Carabao Cup final.

Despite the 2-0 defeat, the ex-Liverpool star, synonymous with two errors in the 2018 Champions League final for Liverpool, was arguably the Magpies' best player during the match.

According to The Athletic, Howe wants to keep him as a backup beyond the summer.

However, to the delight of Diletta, he is considering alternative options.

In an interview with Corriere della Sera, via Bild, the pregnant Italian TV presenter revealed her feelings on Karius' current situation.

She said: "Newcastle is very uncomfortable because there are no direct flights, neither via Paris nor via Amsterdam.

"Do I hope he can come to Italy? Selfishly, yes, but from a sporting point of view, I wish him the best.

"He started learning Italian and wants me to learn German, but I'm not going to get involved, it's too difficult."

Diletta found out she was pregnant with a baby girl on December 24, before revealing the news to the public in March.

Although the couple has not decided on a name just yet.

The 31-year-old even laid down the gauntlet for Karius to propose.

She added: "I'm thinking about getting married, but he has to ask me first. I'm a traditionalist in that respect."

And should Karius make the offer, it seems Diletta would almost certainly accept, after calling Karius "the man of my life".

She has also backed Karius to be a "sweet dad", saying: "I was having dinner at a club with my friends, Loris comes in and I said, 'Girls, the man of my life has come in.'

"That was absolutely awesome. We talked until 4 a.m., I liked him right away...

"I felt total joy with Loris, love to the extreme, enthusiasm to the stars. I'm sure he'll be a very sweet dad."
