Botev Vratsa's management expressed its full support to head coach Hristo Yanev, BTA reported. After a series of poor results, recently there were reports of an ultimatum to Yanev, but such a thing was categorically rejected by the bosses.
„Dear fans, supporters, media, players and colleagues,
In response to the created excess noise in the media space, generated by the publication of "Topic Sport" regarding an alleged ultimatum to Hristo Yanev, we would like to clarify: a conversation between Hristo Yanev, the club's management and the city's mayor, Kalin Kamenov, was not held. It was neither discussed, nor does a situation exist in which Botev Vratsa's coach is put in an uncomfortable position.
Outside of the publications of the particular media whose purpose is clearly to cause tension in our team, there was no such conversation at all. This is not the first time false information has been spread, and it probably won't be the last. We appeal to all the media with an insistence on responsibility: false statements harm not only the image of the club, but also our entire community. Respect and professionalism are essential to us, and we expect the same in return.
We stand behind the call for ethics in journalism and for the correct coverage of information”, Botev Vratsa wrote on social networks.
