Premier League 'to discuss' whether to continue taking the knee before games

Premier League bosses will discuss the "taking the knee" gesture with senior players as they consider whether to continue with the gesture next season.

Players have backed the anti-racism symbol for more than two seasons, taking a knee before every game since football returned following the pandemic in 2020. Now though some feel as if the gesture needs to be stopped but conversations will be held before any decision is made.

Club captains, managers and the PFA will be consulted by the Premier League as they look to get a feel for what the consensus is among the game's major figures. If everyone is keen to continue with the gesture into the 2022/23 season then it will remain despite backlash from some, reports The Sun.
