Turkey summons German ambassador over footballer's far-right gesture: AFP source

Turkey on Wednesday summoned the German ambassador after Berlin condemned Merih Demiral for celebrating his goal with an ultra-nationalist gesture in the win over Austria at Euro 2024, a diplomatic source told AFP.

UEFA said it had opened a probe while Germany's Interior Minister Nancy Faeser remarked: "The symbols of Turkish right-wing extremists have no place in our stadiums."
