FA to remind Guehi & Palace about religious messaging

The Football Association is to remind Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi and the Selhurst Park club that religious messaging on their kit is banned.

England defender Guehi's rainbow captain's armband for Palace's draw against Newcastle United on Saturday had the message 'I love Jesus' written on it.

The armbands are being worn as part of Premier League clubs showing their support for LGBTQ+ inclusion in sport by taking part in charity Stonewall's Rainbow Laces campaign between 29 November and 5 December.

Guehi's actions risked a formal FA charge, although sources from the organisation have said that will not happen on this occasion.
