Martin Glenn, the chief executive of the Football Association, has issued an apology for comments in which he compared the Star of David with a Nazi swastika.
Glenn made the remarks in reference to the yellow ribbon being worn by Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, which is a symbol in support of imprisoned Catalan politicians.
The FA boss remarked he was against political motifs being worn, saying it "could be the Star of David, it could be the hammer and sickle, it could be a swastika, anything like (Zimbabwe's former president) Robert Mugabe on your shirt, these are the things we don't want," per Rob Harris of the Associated Press.
