The striker was contracted to Werder Bremen last season, and the report claims that Liverpool want to bolster their attack in the summer.
The Champions League winners face a lot of competition for the German, with Fenerbahce, AS Roma and Bayern Munich interested in the 31-year-old, according to the report.
Daniel Sturridge’s future unclear at Liverpool
Daniel Sturridge celebrated a Champions League win on Saturday, but the report claims that the Englishman’s future is unclear at Liverpool.
The former Chelsea striker has struggled for starts under Jurgen Klopp and has seen Divock Origi being preferred as a replacement to Roberto Firmino.
Sturridge has also struggled with injuries during his time at Anfield, however, he was fit for most of the campaign this time around.
Kruse would make a decent free signing for the Reds as he can play in several positions in the final third. The problem with the German is his age and Liverpool have a young striker in Rhian Brewster already on the books.
