FENERBAHCE HAVE ACCUSED Galatasaray of “pathetic slander” after the latter claimed Jose Mourinho made “racist statements” following Monday’s 0-0 draw between the sides.
Fenerbahce then issued a response, which said: “This statement has become necessary regarding a topic that has been on the agenda after the match played between our football team and Galatasaray. “Trying to portray this discourse as racist is a completely malevolent approach. We would like to inform the public that we will exercise our legal rights regarding this pathetic slander that aims to take the competition out of the field, change the agenda and manipulate it.”
“You can clearly understand that Jose Mourinho had no intention to be racist, in the words or behind the words or around the words. As a club I can clearly say that we are behind our coach, we are supporting him 100%.”
