Hungarian side Ferencváros eliminated Turkish club Trabzonspor from the Europa League after a crushing 4-0 victory, with Egyptian star Mohamed Salah taking part.
A Trabzonspor activist posted on their official "X" page that Mohamed Salah attempted to persuade Trabzonspor manager Fatih Tekke to withdraw his resignation.
An influential voice among Trabzonspor fans added: "It seems somewhat believable, when journalists who are aware of the sources write it, I suppose, it’s an acceptable perspective."
