Beitar Jerusalem has often been a symbol of right-wing Israel and some fans have been known to sing racist songs.It has been previously labelled as the ‘most racist football club in the world’.The social media post was quickly taken down after criticism by club members and owner Moshe Hogeg.Hogeg said: This post and the things written in it did not add any respect to anyone. Ali Mohamed will be a Beitar Jerusalem player and the only thing that interests us is what this signing can do for the team and the club.” La Familia appeared to backtrack from their original online post with a later statement.They wrote they appreciate every signing thats good for the club. Hes excellent player and were glad hes here.Tere are a lot of soccer players who give them a nickname, Lionel Messi is called the Flea, Mohamed Salah is called Mo.We have nicknames for players and Ali Mohamed will also get one.
