Abandonment of Rainbow Jerseys in Ligue 1: Fiasco or Strategic Pause?

Football News

This decision follows previous controversies, particularly during weekends dedicated to the fight against homophobia. In 2023, the LFP badge, displaying the colors of the rainbow, was at the center of attention when some players attempted to conceal it. This situation raises the question: is it an announced failure or a strategic pause to move forward more effectively?
