Manchester United abandoned plans to wear a jacket supporting the LGBTQ+ community before Sunday's win over Everton because a player refused to wear it. BBC said defender Noussair Mazraoui declined to take part in the initiative, citing his Muslim faith.

LGBTQ+ supporters' club Rainbow Devils said it was a "great disappointment" but United said players are "entitled to hold their own individual opinions".

I guess, Man Utd ‘ decision to scrap LGBTQ+ jacket plans is right. However, the issue has sparked debate both inside and outside the club. I'm very interested in how the discussion progresses.
