Belgium and Manchester City winger Jeremy Doku says he holds no grudge toward a journalist who criticised his plan to leave the Belgium team camp during the World Cup to attend the birth of his first child.
Doku’s comments address earlier criticism about his decision-making during the tournament, which drew attention from media outlets and fans. In his response, he emphasizes that he is focused on maintaining respectful relations rather than reacting negatively to the criticism.
Across the sources provided, the central point remains the same: Doku frames his stance as one of understanding and not hostility toward the individual reporter. The reporting differs only in wording and presentation, with both outlets repeating that he says he is “not against” the journalist. The accounts do not add further new details about the journalist’s specific comments beyond the broader criticism of Doku’s planned departure.
