UEFA Investigates Turkey's Merih Demiral for Alleged Banned Gesture at Euro 2024 Quarter-Final
Jul 3, 2024, 09:16 AM
UEFA has opened an investigation into Turkey's Merih Demiral following his goal celebration during Turkey's Euro 2024 Round of 16 win over Austria. The investigation pertains to an alleged banned gesture linked to the far-right extremist group Grey Wolves. The gesture, made after Demiral scored his second goal, has drawn significant attention and criticism. Germany’s interior minister Nancy Faeser has condemned the use of such symbols, stating that Turkish right-wing extremist symbols have no place in stadiums and that security authorities are monitoring the situation closely. This comes as Turkey reached the Euro 2024 quarter-final.
