German second division football club Fortuna Dusseldorf has decided not to sign Israeli footballer Schon Weissmann due to his controversial and inflammatory statements against Palestinians on social media.
They have decided not to sign the Israeli footballer.
The announcement was made after an online petition launched by the club’s fans on social media, which called on the club not to sign him, citing the Israeli footballer’s past statements.
The fans said that signing the Israeli footballer could damage the reputation of the club and its fans.
According to the report, in October 2023, Weissmann had liked and shared posts on social media allegedly supporting the wiping out of Gaza.
All these statements proved unacceptable to the fans and management of the football club, after which it was decided not to sign a contract with the player.
