A small football club from the German town of Muhl lost seven players because of a request from the sponsor of the club.
The native of Turkey Engin Arslan is the owner of the cafe - sponsor of SC 1920 Muhl.
15 football players of the club gathered in front of this very cafe in order to make a team photo, and Arslan asked them to do something funny, so that the photo does not look "usually".
Seven players did not think of anything better than raising their hand in Hitler's salute.
The management of the club reacted quickly, it was decided to part with all seven players, as well as to cease cooperation with the sponsor.
Players apologized for what they did, however, the incident is already being investigated by the German police, as Nazi salutes are banned in Germany.
