Berke Özer, who was transferred from Eyüpspor to the French team Lille in the summer, made a flash move by leaving the National Team camp after the Bulgaria match. Making a statement on the issue, TFF stated that Berke Özer left the camp without permission and said, “It is not possible to accept such behavior.”
ANNOUNCED THAT HE RECEIVED PERMISSION FROM THE TECHNICAL TEAM
Responding to TFF’s statement shortly after, Berke Özer denied the federation and announced that he left the camp with the permission of the technical and administrative team. Following the hot developments, the punishment awaiting the 25-year-old goalkeeper was revealed.
WHAT DOES THE FOOTBALL DISCIPLINARY INSTRUCTIONS SAY?
According to the news provided by NTV Spor, Berke Özer is expected to be referred to PFDK due to the article “Not participating in the national competition” in the Football Disciplinary Instruction.
The relevant article states that “Football players who do not participate in official or private national competitions or preparatory activities without a justified reason, or who participate late or leave the training and competition place, will be punished with a ban from competitions for a period of 2 months to 1 year.”
If Berke Özer receives a penalty due to this article and TFF forwards this to FIFA, this time the FIFA Disciplinary Board will decide whether the penalty is international or not.
