Manchester United decided not to wear a jacket supporting the LGBTQ+ community before their match against Everton after defender Noussair Mazraoui declined to participate due to his Muslim faith. The club stated that players are entitled to their individual opinions. Fans expressed disappointment over the decision, but the club emphasized its commitment to diversity and inclusion. Captain Bruno Fernandes wore a rainbow armband during the game as part of the Premier League’s ongoing support for LGBTQ+ initiatives.
