Ipswich reveal captain Sam Morsy chose not to wear rainbow armband

Practising Muslim made decision on religious grounds
Ipswich ‘stand with the LGBTQ+ community’

Ipswich have revealed their captain, Sam Morsy, chose not to wear a rainbow armband in support of the LGBTQ+ community owing to his religious beliefs. The Premier League and its clubs promoted equality and diversity during the weekend fixtures as part of Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign.

Morsy, who is a practising Muslim, led Ipswich during their 1-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest. The 33-year-old, a Britain-born Egypt interntional, was the only one of the 20 top-flight captains in action not to wear the rainbow armband.
