Rumors about Michy Batshuayi, the former Chelsea player, moving from Fenerbahce to Galatasaray have caused a wave of threats and abuse towards his family.
The player’s wife, Amelie Maria, claimed that Fenerbahce fans threatened to kill their child, which prompted her to close comments on her “Instagram” account.
Batshuayi joined Fenerbahce in 2022 and scored 44 goals in 75 matches. His contract with the club expires at the end of this month, and he is expected to join Galatasaray, Fenerbahce’s arch rival in the Turkish league, as the derby between the two teams is considered one of the fiercest confrontations in football. .
Amelie Maria expressed her dissatisfaction, noting that the family had received racist abuse and death threats, and described these actions as shameful.
Batshuayi’s possible move to move to Galatasaray came after Fenerbahce lost the chance to win the Turkish League, where Galatasaray won the title by three points.
Turkish stadiums witnessed many cases of violence, the most recent of which was a fight in a match between Fenerbahce and Galatasaray last May.
It is worth noting that if Batshuayi joins Galatasaray, he will become the eleventh Belgian player to represent the three largest clubs in Turkey, and the first foreign player to achieve this achievement.
