Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi will face no formal action from the English Football Association despite defying its rules for a second time by writing a religious message on his uniform during a Premier League campaign celebrating LGBTQ+ inclusion.
Guehi and Palace were contacted by the FA and reminded of English soccer's kit regulations after he wore a rainbow armband with “I love Jesus” written on it for a Premier League match against Newcastle on Saturday. Guehi used a heart sign instead of the word “love.”
That was in contravention of an FA regulation — Rule A4 — which states that the appearance on, or incorporation in, any item of clothing, football boots or other equipment of any religious message is prohibited.
