Galatasaray plans to start criminal proceedings against Jose Mourinho and file complaints with soccer's governing body after accusing the Fenerbahce coach of making racist comments after a Turkish league game.

Turkish Süper Lig leaders Galatasaray said they will "initiate criminal proceedings" and report Fenerbahçe manager Jose Mourinho to FIFA and UEFA over what they call "racist statements." The move comes after the two sides played to a 0-0 draw in a tense league match in Istanbul on Monday night.

Turkish league leaders Galatasaray said the club planned to launch criminal proceedings against Jose Mourinho for "derogatory statements" against Turkish people, with Fenerbahce hitting back at what they claim to be a “malicious approach”.
