Bundesliga club Mainz 05 have lost an appeal against a court decision that saw them pay former player Anwar El Ghazi €1.5million (£1.3m; $1.7m) after they were found to have unfairly dismissed him.
El Ghazi had his contract terminated by the club on November 3, 2023 after posting about the Israel-Gaza war on social media.
El Ghazi was initially suspended by Mainz in October of that year for the pro-Palestinian post, with the club describing it as “unacceptable”. His suspension was lifted shortly after and Mainz said that they had warned the player, who had shown “remorse”.
However, El Ghazi said in a subsequent post that he did not “regret” or “distance himself” from his initial words. Mainz then terminated his contract.

Hey @AbubakerAbedW your amazing resilience in the face of extreme adversity has been incredibly inspiring for me. To repay you for your love and support, I would be honoured if I could fund a project for the children in your Deir al-Balah Refugee Camp in Gaza. Please get in touch to discuss.
Beba Amila Džaferagić, ima pet mjeseci. Prve zrake sunca, prvi vazduh, prvi majčin dodir, sve je stekla u selu Biljani kod Ključa.
A onda su prije 32 godine, 10. jula ‘92 u selo ušli četnici.
Pobili su 264 mještana.
A beba Amila?
Pronađena je u jami, mrtva u zagrljaju ubijene majke. Čvrsto je držala flašicu s mlijekom.
Ubijena je metkom u glavu iz neposredne blizine. Metak u glavu bebi, možete li shvatiti razmjere monstruoznosti te?
Svijet je šutio. Tri godine poslije, gotovo u dan, srebrenički genocid!
A u Biljanima kod Ključa, temelji genocidni su udareni na današnji dan.
Pamtiš li svijete bebu Amilu iz Biljana???
