Loris Karius (33), the goalkeeper who led Schalke 04 back to the Bundesliga first division, received a touching congratulatory message from his wife.

Germany's 'Bild' reported on the 3rd (Korean time) that "Dileta Leota, Karius's wife and a popular sports anchor, has garnered significant attention with a tribute to celebrate Schalke's promotion."

On the 2nd, Leota celebrated her husband's promotion to the first division via her Instagram. She expressed deep affection, saying, "I know the path you have walked and everything you have overcome, and I am truly proud. You have more than earned the right to enjoy this promotion."

Leota then mentioned the emotional struggles Karius endured. She emphasized, "Even in painful times when giving up would have been easier, I witnessed your resilience up close. Today is not just a victory, but a resurrection and your courage itself. As someone who will soon become a mother to two children, I am always proud of you."

Since donning the Schalke jersey in January 2025, Karius has served as the starting goalkeeper and became the top contributor to the team's promotion. With Karius's outstanding performance, Schalke, which secured a top-half finish in the 2025-2026 2. Bundesliga season, is set to return to the first division stage for the first time in four seasons.

Karius, who endured a long period of trials due to a fatal error in the 2017-2018 UEFA Champions League (UCL) final during his time at Liverpool, has now returned to the first division with undeniable success.

Meanwhile, Leota, who is active as a sports caster in Italy, began dating Karius in 2022. The couple welcomed their first daughter, Aria, in 2023 and officially tied the knot in 2024. Leota, who announced her pregnancy with their second child in December last year, is currently just a few weeks away from giving birth.
