In recent days, the public has been actively discussing the actions of Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi, who wrote "I love Jesus" over a rainbow armband. Crystal Palace head coach Oliver Glasner has come to his captain’s defense.
Details: Glasner emphasized that Guehi had no intention of offending or discriminating against anyone, describing him as a good-hearted individual whose message should not be seen as controversial.
Quote: "I think we need to calm down. Everyone knows Marc, everyone knows he’s a great player and a great person. He’s a very humble guy. He wore it. This is about LGBTQ+ support, and now everyone is talking about inclusion and non-discrimination, and Marc supports that too. I think we’re all on the same page. We’re in sports, and in sports, we always stand against discrimination and any form of violence—and so does Marc," Glasner stated.
Reminder: It was previously reported that the English Football Association will not penalize Guehi for his actions.
