Man United reportedly scrapped plans to wear an LGBT rainbow jacket after Noussair Mazraoui refused to wear it.
During the past two years, as part of the Premier League's Rainbow Laces campaign, United’s players have worn a pride-themed jersey to warm up ahead of games, to show support for the LGBTQ+ community.
According to The Athletic, this year United had planned to walk-out in a rainbow jacket prior to their clash against Everton but Moroccan star Noussair Mazraoui refused.
The outlet claim that the Mazraoui, who is a devout Muslim, told his teammates that he would not be wearing the jacket and cited his religious faith as his reasoning.
The club then decided that no player would wear the tracksuit, so that Mazraoui would not be singled out publicly. The decision was reportedly taken just hours before kick-off.

We respect all our differences, we accept you as humans and relate with you with love and respect and provide services to you ad we would do to anybody, but don't shove it down our throat. We all have things we believe in and accept, same way I can't force you to accept mine, don't force me to accept yours.

I still don't understand why these clubs are even working with these lgbtq communities? it literally brings NOTHING for football. it's like bringing politics to football . there is literally no connection at ALL. leave sport as a sport politics as politics and illness as illness please 🙏

It’s not the faith of Christianity that failed us, it’s those who say they are faithful but don’t truly practice their faith that has failed us all 🙏🏼.

Mazraoui you are now my favorite player at Manchester United. Standing up against such powerful evil and enabling the club to do the right thing is admirable, and show up all those African players who goes along with the promotion of this sickness that plaguing our society. Big Respect to Mazraoui, if you don’t stand for something you will fall forever and loose your morals. Manchester United should take it a step further and don’t allow the captain arm band to be laced with that color they are using to represent their deviant behavior and lifestyle.

I wonder why the Christian players are not equally refusing to this LGBTQ campaign. Have you forgotten your religious faith and values? Are you making a mockery of yourselves? This is mind blowing

A good move by the player and the team. Respect. This LGBTQ thing is becoming unfair in that everyone is being forced to participate in it, even those who do not believe in it. Personally i have no qualms about this movement but it should not be shoved down other people's throats and everyone becomes tainted with the same brush. No way.
