Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna said he supports captain Sam Morsy's decision not to wear a rainbow armband over the last two fixtures.

Morsy is the only captain across the 20 Premier League clubs not to have worn the special armband as part of the 'Rainbow Laces' campaign - designed to show of support for the LGBTQ+ community. 

McKenna said: "As the club statement said, we want to be an inclusive club. We are working really, really hard on that. Within the club, within the playing group, there has been a lot of good work and want to continue that.

"But at the same time the club has respected Samy's individual decision based on his religious beliefs. I think that's a fair assessment."

On Saturday, Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi wrote 'I love Jesus ' on his rainbow armband. He was reportedly reminded by The FA that religious messaging is banned from equipment, but wore it again in tonight's game at Portman Road.

Eagles boss Oliver Glasner said: "Everybody who knows Marc knows he's a great guy and very humble. I don't think we should make this bigger than it is. He's an adult, he has an opinion and we respect that. This campaign is about being tolerant and Marc is very tolerant."
