After coming through the ranks of Hertha BSC, Fuß switched to city rivals Hertha Zehlendorf before moving to Türkiyemspor Berlin where he scored a Verbandsliga record[2] 66 goals in 34 league games, helping the club to become Berlin-Liga champions of the 1999–2000 season.[1] Fuß left Türkiyemspor for Tennis Borussia Berlin in the then third-tier Regionalliga Nord, scoring only twice in 21 games. After spells at RSV Göttingen 05 and 1.
