Turkish federation refers Trabzonspor to disciplinary committee for second time

The Turkish Football Federation has referred Trabzonspor to its disciplinary committee over chants during its league match against Konyaspor, the club's second such referral in a short period.

• The Turkish Football Federation referred Trabzonspor to its disciplinary committee under Article 53 over what it described as abusive and offensive chants during the match against Konyaspor.
• The federation also referred Konyaspor player Deniz Turuç to the disciplinary committee for unsportsmanlike conduct during the match, without precautionary measures.
• Konyaspor won the match 1-0 in round five of the Turkish Super Lig, with Egyptian Mohamed Salah playing for Trabzonspor and Mostafa Mohamed for Konyaspor.
• The referral follows a prior case over president Ertuğrul Doğan's comments on refereeing, in which the federation cleared both the club and Doğan.
