Premier League clubs are reportedly ‘irritated’ by the lack of guidance from the Football Association on how to advise stars wanting to make public statements about the Israel-Hamas war. The devastating conflict in the Middle East has split dressing rooms over the last month, but clubs remain unsure how far players can go with their messages.
It is claimed that the FA is ‘dragging its heels’ over investigating Leicester midfielder Hamza Choudhury over a pro-Palestine post he shared. Choudhury, who is of Bangladeshi-Grenadian descent, shared a post on X that read: “From river to sea…”
The message is associated with Palestinian nationalism. Choudhury also shared an emoji depicting the Palestinian flag.
But clubs are unsure how to address situations in which their players harbour strong views on the ongoing conflict. In a perceived absence of clear guidance from the FA, clubs are reportedly taking it upon themselves to hold internal presentations to players.
According to the Daily Mail, clubs are holding talks with players on how to avoid landing themselves in trouble with the authorities over public statements in relation to the Israel-Hamas war.
