It looked as if Mesut Özil had found his great love. But since his suspension in April, his relationship with top Turkish club Fenerbahce has broken down. With one click, the ex-national player completely messed with the fans.
Unfollow Fenerbahce: A tweet from a Turkish journalist sparked a wave of anger against Mesut Özil. The reporter noted that Özil has unfollowed all social media channels of his current Turkish club Fenerbahce Istanbul. Only his teammates and a larger fan page can still be found on his Twitter account, writes “Spox”.
Short, compact, clear
Fans with strong criticism: The fans of the Turkish club in particular criticize the 33-year-old properly. “Hundreds of thousands accompanied your flight to Istanbul when you came to Fenerbahce,” wrote a fan. Another pointed out that Özil himself Arsenal still follows, although the split was quite uncomfortable at the time.
Suspension in April: Özil moved from Arsenal to Fenerbahce in 2021, but he fell short of sporting expectations there. At the beginning of April, the former German international was then suspended under interim coach Ismail Kartal. The new coach Jorge Jesus also rejects Özil’s return.
