RB Leipzig’s Sorloth begs fans of ex-club Trabzonspor to ‘stop calling me’ after he’s bombarded with 3.4MILLION messages
ALEXANDER SORLOTH has begged fans of former club Trabzonspor to ‘stop calling me’.
That’s after supporters of the Turkish outfit bombarded the RB Leipzig ace with 3.4MILLION messages on Instagram.
The bizarre social media flood occurred when ex-Crystal Palace forward Sorloth, 25, uploaded a photo three days ago.
The picture simply showed the striker training with Norway at a camp in Marbella, Spain.
But Sorloth’s snap was soon swamped by millions of comments, with Trabzonspor fans begging him to return to Turkey.

Sorloth, who was still owned by Palace at the time, was eager to make his move permanent after becoming an instant Trabzonspor legend.
But he was instead sold to Leipzig for over £17million after they met Palace’s asking price.
Sorloth managed just six goals in his first season with the Bundesliga side.
However, the hitman has now pleaded with fans to stop sending him messages and comments, saying ’Enough is enough’.
In a tweet that appears to have since been deleted, Sorloth wrote: “I appreciate your love and support but please stop calling and sending me messages.
“It makes my life very stressful. Enough is enough.”
