Overview
- The Professional Football Disciplinary Board issued sanctions of three to 12 months, with rulings set to become final after a seven-day appeal window.
- Galatasaray’s Eren Elmali received a 45-day suspension, while team-mate Metehan Baltaci was banned for nine months.
- The action follows the earlier suspension of 1,024 players across professional leagues, after which third- and fourth-division fixtures were paused for two weeks.
- Prosecutors have pursued a parallel criminal inquiry, issuing detention orders for 21 people, including 17 referees and two club presidents.
- Arrests confirmed so far include Eyüpspor chairman Murat Özkaya along with several referees, as the federation reviews integrity breaches that also implicated hundreds of match officials with betting accounts.
