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.

Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi wearing the Rainbow Laces captain’s armband which has the words ‘Jesus Heart You’ on during the England Premier League soccer match between Ipswich Town and Crystal Palace at Portman Road, Ipswich, England, Tuesday, Dec. 3, 2024.

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. The Athletic reported Wednesday that Manchester United abandoned plans for its players to wear training tops in support of the LGBTQ+ community ahead of the Premier League game against Everton on Sunday after defender Noussair Mazraoui declined to join the initiative.

Approached for comment, United said: “Manchester United welcomes fans from all backgrounds, including members of the LGBTQ+ community, and we are strongly committed to the principles of diversity and inclusion.
