Reports this morning suggest Qantas Socceroo is set to sign for Bundesliga heavyweights Bayer Leverkusen.
Kruse, 24, has enjoyed an excellent season with Fortuna Dusseldorf and reports from Germany suggest the former Melbourne Victory star is set to sign a three-year deal for $1.9 million as a replacement for Chelsea target Andre Schurrle.
The transfer would represent a huge opportunity for Kruse, with Leverkusen set to play in next season-s UEFA Champions League.
