Leicester City midfielder Hamza Choudhury apologised and deleted a post on X after using the phrase “from the river to the sea” alongside an image of a Palestinian flag; The FA decided against imposing a sanction on Choudhury, but players risk being investigated by police
The FA will write to clubs advising players not to use the phrase “from the river to the sea” in social media posts as it is “considered offensive to many”.
Leicester City midfielder Hamza Choudhury apologised and deleted a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, for using the phrase alongside a Palestinian flag.
After an investigation, the FA decided against imposing a sanction on Choudhury, but if any player uses the phrase again, they run the risk of being investigated by police.
