The Turkish Football Federation has announced that Super Eagles defender Bright Osayi-Samuel and two other Fenerbache players have been summoned to appear before the disciplinary committee.

Osayi Samuel and his teammates were involved in a fight with Trabzonspor fans that invaded the pitch after their team lost at home 3-2 to Fenerbache.

They could face a lengthy ban of as much as 10 matches, according to the rules and regulations of the Turkish FA.

In the meantime, the Fenerbache will hold an extraordinary board meeting today to decide on measures thrown up by the violence from that game.

It has been reported that the measures could include the Istanbul giants pulling out of the league.
