Eric Bailly's Turbulent Turkish Odyssey: From Curse Threats to Contract Termination

By -

Former Manchester United defender Eric Bailly recently experienced a rollercoaster of events, culminating in the termination of his contract with Turkish club Besiktas. The Ivory Coast international, who left Old Trafford in September after a loan spell with Marseille, saw his stint with the Premier League giants come to an end.

In November, Bailly found himself in a heated altercation with teammate Tayfur Bingol during Besiktas' league clash at Antalyaspor, leading to his substitution at halftime. The month unfolded with only 27 more minutes of play for Bailly before December brought a string of misfortunes.

Reports from the Daily Mirror suggested that a curse had been cast on Bailly, allegedly related to unpaid fees from his transfer to Besiktas. Messages on WhatsApp forewarned him, and subsequent events, including giving away a penalty, seemed to validate the curse.

Amid the turmoil, Bailly's agent and uncle, Severin Bohui, revealed ongoing threats and blackmail from an individual claiming financial entitlement. Despite no intermediation contract, the agent insisted on payment, escalating the situation into a security concern rather than a FIFA matter.

In early December, Besiktas exiled Bailly along with four other senior players, citing team compatibility issues and poor performances. Despite arguments that injuries had affected his form, the exile persisted for less than three weeks before Besiktas terminated Bailly's contract, stating a mutual agreement.

Besiktas' curt statement read, 'The contract with Eric Bailly, the player of our first team, has been terminated by mutual agreement. We wish Eric Bailly success in his career. Regards. Besiktas JK.'

Bailly's troubled time in Turkey, marked by injuries to his hamstring, neck, and shoulder, contrasted with his initial promising start in the Conference League. Rumors now link him to a possible return to LaLiga side Villarreal, where manager Marcelino is reportedly eager to secure his signature, indicating a potential new chapter for the Ivorian defender.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league."
