Fenerbahce has dismissed reports that Italian football legend Francesco Totti is set to join its football management structure, calling the claims entirely baseless.
The Istanbul-based club issued an official statement on Monday, responding to a report published by Turkish newspaper Sozcu under the headline "Fenerbahce's Football Mind," which suggested that Totti would become involved in the club's football operations.
Fenerbahce clarified that the report, which had subsequently been picked up and circulated by other media outlets, did not reflect the facts.
The club said the claims about Totti joining its football management structure had "no basis in reality," firmly rejecting suggestions that the former Italian football star was preparing to take on a position.
In its statement, Fenerbahce also criticized media organizations for spreading unverified information and called on journalists to follow professional reporting standards.
The club urged news outlets to verify claims before making them public and emphasized the importance of responsible journalism.
