Marc-André Kruska made his Borussia Dortmund debut as a first half substitute in the 1-0 defeat to Kaiserslautern in November 2004. The midfielder then went on to feature in all but three Bundesliga games that followed in the 2004/05 season, and scored his first senior goal on the final day of the season against Hansa Rostock.
Kruska was awarded the Fritz Walter Medal for being the best U-18 player in 2005. He went on to make 107 appearances for Borussia Dortmund before leaving the club to join Club Brugge in 2009. He made his return to Germany with Energie Cottbus, and after representing a host of lower league clubs, he joined F91 Dudelange in Luxembourg, before retiring in 2019.
