The defender's celebration has turned into a diplomatic issue, which has clashed Germany and Turkey, where the first to react was the German interior minister Nancy Faeser, who described the footballer's gestures as "racist and unacceptable", however Ankara's response was fast.
The spokesman for the party of the president, Erdogan, Omar Çelik. It has been stated that the German minister's statements are unacceptable, as is the UEFA investigation, but despite the distance clash between two countries, it will be the UEFA Disciplinary Committee that will decide on Demiral's fate at Euro 2024
