The Turkish club Fenerbahce Istanbul is suing former player Max Kruse (32) for damages worth 18 million euros.
The forward unilaterally terminated his contract with the Turks in the summer. Reason: non-payment of salary. The attacker wrote on Instagram at the time: “I have never broken contracts in my career and I would not give notice of termination if Fenerbahce had complied with contractual agreements.”
According to his account, he has not received an “almost” full salary from the club since February. Kruse now has a contract with Union Berlin. Fenerbahce board member Alper Pirsen said in an interview with Transfermarkt.com.tr: “The problem between us has become a FIFA case for both parties. We have to defend the rights of our association to the end. “

And furthermore: “Max Kruse left us and filed a claim against us in FIFA for the amount of 7.5 million euros. We have sent our arguments to FIFA regarding this lawsuit. We are also suing Max Kruse. “
In fact, “for the amount of 18 million euros”. This insane sum is demanded by the Kruse club as “compensation”.
Pirsen threatens: “In the history of our club there are many similar situations. Of course, this case is not the same and the facts are not identical, but an Ariel Ortega, who was unhappy in Turkey and wanted to return to Argentina, left our club very problematic and was subsequently sentenced to 11 million dollars in damages. “.
