An amazing story happened after the Euroleague basketball match between Turkish Anadolu Efes and Spanish Barcelona.
BASKETBALL TOURNAMENTS WILL STOP IN UKRAINE: WHAT IS THE REASON?. As a result, the team returned to Spain, and its basketball player remained in Turkey.. As it turned out, the club simply decided to punish the Frenchman for cheating..
The basketball player, whose contract with Barcelona is coming to an end, will soon change the team. Ertel told the current club that he intends to move to Fenerbahce and, despite the fact that he was not included in the coach's plans for the upcoming game, asked to go with the team to Turkey to discuss the terms of his future transition, writes Eurohoops.
However, already in Turkey, Barca revealed Ertel's lies. It turned out that he was negotiating not with Fenerbahce, but with Real Madrid - the main competitor of the current French club. The basketball player used the flight to Istanbul with the team as a cover for his true intentions..
It is noted that Ertel intends to sue Barcelona for its actions. Later, the Catalan club reported that they did not abandon the player in Istanbul - he was provided with a hotel for the night, a ticket for a regular flight and all the necessary documents to return to Spain the next day.
