[Star Wars] Did Pong Krell ACTUALLY have a chance of becoming Dooku’s apprentice?

He seemed very insistent that when he got off of Umbara, he’d find Dooku and he’d be his new Master. But after his failure with Ventress, and his even WORSE failure with Savage, would Dooku seriously consider taking a former Jedi Master? Or would he just say “Sorry, but we’re not taking applications at this time.” And kill him?

I doubt Dooku would make him a real apprentice, but Dooku and Palpatine might tell him they would just to manipulate him into doing something useful for a little bit before getting rid of him. It’s unlikely Dooku would be able to keep it a secret he was training a former Jedi Master as an apprentice even if he wanted to, and Palpatine didn’t even like Dooku having Ventress. And Krell doesn’t seem strong enough that Palpatine would want him to replace Dooku either. And Krell would be unlikely to accept just being some tool for them. 

So they’d probably just do what Palpatine did to Dooku; use him until he’s not useful anymore, and then take him out without a second thought.
