Max Kruse is currently in Las Vegas… losing money.
An accomplished poker player, the striker, who is leaving Werder Bremen, isn’t having the best of times. Bild report he’s paid a total of $13k to enter three competitions, and come out with around $2k.
They explain he’s also gambling with his future, leaving Werder under the impression he’d get a great offer from elsewhere. He’s been earning around €6m a year at the German club, and so far nobody wants to offer similar.
Bild say the Liverpool manager has ‘given him the basket’, which makes zero sense. A little digging shows it’s a German term for when someone is dumped.
Fenerbahce has recently offered a two year contract, and Kruse knocked it back, believing better would arrive. Not from Liverpool, unless things change.
