Fenerbahçe Presidential Candidate Hakan Safi stated that the allegations regarding the transfer of Rafael Leao, who plays for AC Milan, are false, and announced that legal proceedings will be initiated against accounts spreading disinformation.

In the statement made from the official election campaign account of Fenerbahçe presidential candidate Hakan Safi, it was stated that the recent news regarding the Rafael Leao transfer does not reflect the truth.



''CALCULATED ACCOUNTS''





In the statement, it was argued that the news, claimed to have been disseminated by an agency, was spread with the same expressions by "calculations with clear intent," and it was expressed that these allegations are completely false. The statement claimed that the agenda being created in the public is "an attempt at a low-quality operation," while also announcing that legal proceedings will be initiated against the social media accounts identified as engaging in disinformation.



Here is the full statement:





"The so-called news sent last night by an agency regarding the Rafael Leao transfer efforts, and used verbatim by accounts with clear intent, is false.



Fenerbahçe SK Presidential Candidate Mr. Hakan Safi has shown a clear stance to maintain a clean, ethical, and principled communication strategy until today. This is what he expects from everyone during the election campaign process.



Statements about Fenerbahçe's football planning will be made before June 7, ensuring that congress members come to the ballot box with peace of mind and without any question marks.



We leave this low-quality operation attempt to the discretion of the Fenerbahçe public.



We would also like to share with you, esteemed Fenerbahçe supporters, that legal action will be initiated against social media accounts engaging in disinformation. We will not allow anyone to deceive Fenerbahçe supporters with cheap election strategies."
