National football player Samet Akaydın explained in detail the process he went through while playing for Panathinaikos. Samet Akaydın, who stated that he rejected the request to delete his May 19 post, explained what happened to Kafa Sports with the following words:
“We had an Olympiakos match, I was playing in the first 11 in that match. We got up for breakfast in the morning. I made the post in the afternoon. After making the post, I entered the meeting and realized that I was not in the first 11. They removed me from the first 11… When I left the meeting, their sports director came to me and we talked. He said, ‘You have to remove this post. There is a huge reaction to you.’ I said, ‘This is our country’s national holiday. It has nothing to do with you.’ But they don’t perceive it that way. They said, ‘You have to delete it, if you don’t, there will be problems.’ I said, ‘I’m Turkish. It’s my national holiday and I’m going to celebrate it.’ Then they send me messages saying, ‘Please delete it.’
‘THEY TOO REMOVED MY FORM’
“We entered the locker room, then I saw that I didn’t have a jersey this time. They also took my jersey away. They called him and said, ‘We won’t be able to include you in the squad. There is a huge reaction against you in the stadium right now. We can’t protect you here, you have to stay in the locker room until the match is over.’ They said, ‘What are you talking about?’ I said. Of course, I called my manager directly. “Come and get me from here,” I said. I went straight to the stadium, I didn’t stay. I haven’t come back yet since then. At that time, Panathinaikos, so maybe they were going to get my transfer fee, I mean from Fenerbahçe… It was such a situation, it was being talked about.”
