The Premier League has condemned the recent anti-gay comments made by beIN Media Group's Mohamed Aboutrika.
"We wholeheartedly disagree with the pundit's views," the league said in a statement to The Athletic. "The Premier League and its clubs are committed to supporting LGBTQ+ inclusion and making clear football is for everyone."
Aboutrika, a former Egypt national team player and current beIN broadcaster, said on air that Muslim players should boycott the Premier League's Rainbow Laces campaign while criticizing homosexuality as a whole.
"This phenomenon is not only against Muslim nature but it’s against human nature," he said.
