They ate the president's baklava: Several players expelled from Turkish club

Turkey's third-class team, Akhisarspor, has made a strange move after having expelled eight players, but not for sports reasons. “Cumhuriyet” wrote on Wednesday that the players were expelled from the club because they ate baklava.

In fact, they have eaten the baklava offered by the club's presidential candidate, Mikhail Kaplan, Campo had visited the club's training centre, and in courtesy had brought baklavas to players. After his visit, however, current President Evren Ozbey has ruled out the eight players who ate baklava who had brought his counterCandidat.

Yiigt Efe Duztas, Halil Yeral, Yusuf Aer, Gokmen Aydogdu, Mert Efe Colbeyi, Enes Tayfun, Yavuz Serkan Ozbakan and Oguzcan Kesgin are the disfellowshipped players. Following this decision by Chairman Ozbey, the coach has also resigned from the club, while the sports director has warned. Ozbey has been re-elected last week for the third term as Akisari president, but delegates are seeking new elections because he at the club's helm has also committed his two brothers. /Time/
