He said: "The rumours spreading on social media that 'Nusret was kicked out' are not true. In fact, there was no after-party there. I wasn't even invited to such an event.
"I was just passing by, and someone acting out of line in the background made it look like something happened.
"But the claim that I was kicked out is simply false. This is an attack on my reputation."
In a translated statement on Instagram, he also wrote: "After the Champions League final match, we arrived to the hotel in UEFA bus, the reason we were there at that moment was because of our thousands of fans who wanted to see us there.

"As always, I was in that area to return their love and to take photos. Due to the busyness that occurred, while I was waiting for my vehicle to go to my own hotel, my back turned in front of the door, there was a directive from Mr. Dormen.
"There was no organization like invitation party in the middle, hence the news that I was not included in the party. it's all just baseless."

Salt Bae also came under fire for his antics on the pitch after the 2022 World Cup final between Argentina and France.
He took the trophy from centre-back Cristian Romero - breaking a key FIFA rule.
Only a select few people - including players and managers who have won it, as well as heads of state and FIFA officials - are allowed to touch the iconic trophy.
He also pestered several players for photos during the celebrations.
The chef's behaviour prompted an internal investigation at FIFA into how he was allowed onto the pitch.
Salt Bae watched the Champions League final live at the Allianz Arena in Munich.
PSG stormed to a 5-0 victory against Inter Milan to claim their first Champions League title.

Sue Cleaver reflects on '25 years of laughs' after Coronation Street exit
Eileen Grimshaw had a special send-off during Friday's episode of the soap, where she was seen leaving for Thailand alongside her son Jason Grimshaw, played by Ryan Thomas. Simon Gregson's character Steve McDonald, Tony Maudsley's George Shuttleworth, and Eileen's son Todd, played by Gareth Pierce, all said goodbye to the matriarch before drivers from the local taxi firm honked their horns as she was driven off. In an Instagram post, Cleaver said: 'Well… that's a wrap. 25 years of laughs, tears, costumes, chaos — and one unforgettable journey. A post shared by Sue Cleaver (@officialsuecleaver) 'I'll miss this character like crazy, but what a ride it's been. Thank you for every moment.' Cleaver has played the outspoken and uncomplicated Eileen in the ITV show since 2000. Eileen came to Weatherfield to work at the local taxi firm, Streetcars, to provide for her two tearaway teenage children, Jason and Todd. She soon became friends with her boss Steve and came into conflict with Helen Worth's character Gail Rodwell (also known as Gail Platt). Cleaver took part in I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2022, where she opened up about reconciling with her birth mother, and was eliminated third. She also said her family is 'bizarrely interconnected' to other Coronation Street stars, including Worth who is godmother to one of her half-sisters, while her other half-sister's husband, John Bowe, appeared on the cobbles as Duggie Ferguson. In 2024, she released a book A Work In Progress in which she discusses how she feels she is not past her prime. In recent years she has appeared as a panellist on ITV chat show Loose Women.
