Real Madrid star Antonio Rudiger is suing a journalist who accused him of terrorism. Rudiger and the German Football Association took legal action after the Muslim player was linked to a terrorist organization by Julian Reichelt.

Earlier this month, Rudiger posted a picture of himself on Instagram wearing a white robe on a prayer rug, pointing with the index finger of his right hand towards the sky, and accompanied the picture with a supplication to welcome the holy month of Ramadan: “May God accept our fasting and prayers”
