Turkey Süper Lig side, Fenerbahce have filed a lawsuit against their rivals Galatasaray for an “attack on the personal rights” of manager, Jose Mourinho.
Galatasaray has accused Mourinho of making racist remarks following a 0-0 draw between both teams on Monday.
They claimed he had used “unequivocally inhumane rhetoric” after he said the opposition bench “jumping around like monkeys.”
Fenerbahce hit back, insisting the comments were “deliberately taken entirely out of context and distorted in a misleading manner.” On Friday, they decided to initiate legal action to recoup around $52,000 in damages.
“We would like to announce to the public that a lawsuit for moral damages of 1 million 907 thousand Turkish liras has been filed against Galatasaray Sports Club by Fenerbahçe Sports Club lawyers due to the attack on the personal rights of our Technical Director Jose Mourinho,” Fenerbahce said in a statement.
Mourinho only joined Fenerbahce from Roma last year.
Earlier in the season, he was fined and suspended for a tirade against local match officials and the league.
