Chelsea star suspended by loan club after refusing to shake coach's hand during CL tie


Chelsea starlet David Datro Fofana has reportedly been suspended by loan club Union Berlin, it has been claimed in Germany. The forward refused to shake the hand of head coach Urs Fischer after being substituted in the Champions League on Wednesday night. 

The youngster has since apologised, writing on social media: “Following my behaviour during my exit from the field, I wanted to apologise to the club, the coach, my team-mates and the supporters.

“This gesture was not intended and in no way does it represent my attitude, all this was generated as a result of frustration because I wanted to continue helping the team to obtain a positive result.

“We will continue to work and come back even stronger in the championship and in this great competition.” When asked about the incident post-match, Fischer said: “There will be a talk. But I find it strange that this is the first question I get after such a great game from us.”
