1 Max Kruse is set to leave Werder Bremen this summer

Everton have been put on red alert by the news Werder Bremen are willing to flog Max Kruse for £10.5million.

The forward struck 15 times in the Bundesliga last season, while he also laid on seven assists during some impressive performances.

But the 29-year-old is ready to leave Werder Bremen this summer after the German club finished 8th in the league and missed out on European football.

Everton and a number of other clubs are now trying to tie up a deal for Kruse and, according to SportBild, they can do just that if they cough up £10.5m.

Bremen are aware of Kruse’s desire to leave and the growing number of sides ready to offer him a route out of the club.

As a result, the Bundesliga side are ready to sell if their asking price of £10.5m is met.
