This Sunday, five players from Toulouse have been left out of a Ligue 1 game against Nantes. The reason was because they refused to wear a rainbow jersey to commemorate the International Day against Homophobia and Transphobia which will be celebrated next May 17.
Toulouse are the recent French Cup champions and confirmed the reasons for a historic decision. “The players from our roster expressed their disagreement to associate their image with the rainbow colors representing the LGBT movement. Even though we respect the individual choices of the players, Toulouse have decided to separate them from this Sunday’s match against Nantes.”
