Premier League clubs would have spoken out in favor of stopping this gesture of support for the Black Lives Matter cause since 2020.
Premier League teams are expected to stop taking a knee before every league game soon. The Daily Mail announces that the captains of the English elite formations have agreed to put an end to this systematic gesture introduced in 2020 in order to support the Black Lives Matter movement.
Players will still be able to adopt the pose before matches but probably during selected matches, posters or derbies. Premier League captains have agreed that this gesture, if done consistently, eventually loses substance and impact.
Announcements could take place on the subject in the coming days. Promoted club, Bournemouth has already made it known that his team will not be kneeling this season, whatever the meeting.
