Max Kruse turned down Liverpool to move to Fenerbahce, it has been revealed.

German journalist Thomas Wagner claims Werder Bremen's Fenerbahce-bound forward Kruse snubbed Liverpool this summer.

“I know Liverpool made an offer to him," he told Aksam.

“At first, I thought that a move to Fenerbahce is an unlikely one. But he choose Fenerbahce over Liverpool.

“I think he will make a lot of money in Turkey and also he will be the centre of attention."

Kruse has penned a three-year deal with Fenerbahce that is rumoured to be worth around £9m.
