Galatasaray is taking legal measures against Jose Mourinho, accusing him of racist comments following a Turkish league draw with Fenerbahce. The club intends to submit complaints to both UEFA and FIFA.

Following Monday's game, Galatasaray issued a statement condemning Mourinho's allegedly derogatory comments towards the Turkish people and announced plans for criminal proceedings. Mourinho, known for coaching high-profile teams such as Chelsea and Real Madrid, now leads Fenerbahce.

Fenerbahce has strongly refuted these allegations, arguing that Mourinho's statements were taken out of context. The club plans to counter the accusations legally, asserting that his remarks referenced the opposing team's response to referee decisions.
