OGC Nice is a French professional football club based in Nice, . Nice is currently second placed in the Uber Eats Ligue 1.

OGC Nice have suspended Youcef Atal until further notice after a social media post regarding the ongoing situation in Gaza.

Mainz suspended Anwar El Ghazi on Tuesday


The is the club’s official statements:


Upon his return from the national selection of Algeria, where he has been since October 9, the leaders of OGC Nice convened and exchanged with Youcef Atal.
OGC Nice hears that the player acknowledged his mistake by quickly removing the sharing of the publication and offered his written and public apologies
.


Nevertheless, given the nature of the shared publication and its seriousness, the club took the decision to immediately take the first disciplinary sanctions against the player, prior to those that could be decided by the sports and judicial authorities.
As such, the club has decided to suspend Youcef Atal until further notice
.


We would like to emphasize that the reputation and unity of the OGC Nice result from the behavior of all its employees, which must be in accordance with the values defended by the institution. As in its message last Friday, where OGC Nice recalled its firm commitment to peace prevail over any other consideration.

It’s suspension season across Europe, these players should keep their opinions offline, don’t mix sport with politics they say. It’s that simple they should respect the of their contracts. I hope Desert League will signed em all afterwards.

Very good. No room for muslim terrorists and sympathizers/ers of muslim terrorists.

Israel dey their own. You guys breached their border, attacked their people, killed hundreds including women and children, fired scores of rockets into Israel targeting civilians and when they returned the favour, you guys started crying. Una never see anything. All muslim terrorists must be wiped out and their ers sanctioned.

You do anyhow, you see anyhow.

If you Hamas that means you are a terrorist.



Allow Israel to wipe out terrorists from Israel lands and restore it to agricultural plantation the way it was.


So that the world can have a surplus and also eat bountifully Nigeria too can afford good food since hunger is finishing their citizens off before they can have the strength to talk about Palestine's origin and history.


For now, we need food from Israeli lands to feed the nation.


Hamas can go to the red sea of Egypt and develop it.

There is a saying "Don't shit where you eat".

Don't also mix international politics with your means of livelihood.

The foolish footballer has chosen "his for terrorists over his career".
