A German Labour Court has ruled that the termination of Anwar El Ghazi by FSV Mainz 05 was invalid. El Ghazi was initially suspended and then re-included in the squad but reiterated his support for Palestine, leading to his contract termination. The Mainz Labour Court found this termination unlawful and ordered Mainz 05 to repay El Ghazi one year's wages, amounting to €1.7 million.
