Gaute Haugenes, former manager of Fulham women's team, revealed that staff were aware of the late owner Al Fayed's predilection for young, blond girls. He stated, "We were aware he liked young, blond girls. So we just made sure that situations couldn't occur. We protected the players." This highlights a proactive approach taken by the staff to safeguard players from potential misconduct.
Fulham FC expressed their concern for the women coming forward with allegations against their late owner, stating, "We are deeply troubled and concerned to learn of the disturbing reports after yesterday's documentary. We have sincere empathy for the women who have shared their experiences." This statement underlines the club's commitment to investigate any misconduct.
The BBC documentary, Al Fayed: Predator At Harrods, shed light on numerous allegations of assault by Al Fayed from over 20 women who worked at Harrods, sharing experiences of physical violence at various properties he owned in London and Paris. These testimonies indicate a broader pattern of alleged predatory behavior.
Lawyers for Fayed's accusers expressed suspicion that more victims may exist, suggesting, "Wherever he went, there will be victims. We believe many more individuals may have been impacted by his behavior at different establishments throughout his career, underscoring the potential breadth of the allegations.
