Fenerbahce called for the suspension of the Turkish championship yesterday following the gun attack on their team bus on Saturday.

The bus came under armed attack as it drove to the airport following an away match at Caykur Rizespor in Turkey’s Super Lig.

Fener said on their official website the bus driver was wounded in the attack and taken to hospital and there was no mention of any injuries to anyone else.

A statement said: “We consider that as long as this attack is not solved in a way that satisfies Fenerbahce and public opinion, a suspension of the championship is inevitable.

“Blood ran and football was silenced. Finding and punishing the culprits is of vital importance for Fenerbahce.”
The club released pictures showing a shattered side window and damage to the front windscreen.
