Premier League Captains To Wear Ukraine Armbands In Show Of Support

Premier League captains will wear armbands in Ukraine’s national colours this weekend to show support for the war-torn country after Russia’s invasion.

All 20 skippers in the English top flight will don the yellow and blue armbands for this round of fixtures.

Fans will be encouraged to join players, managers, match officials and club staff in a moment of reflection and solidarity before kick-off.

The large screens at grounds will display “Football Stands Together” against a yellow and blue backdrop.

The words will also be shown on LED perimeter boards during games, which start with Leicester against Leeds at 1230 GMT on Saturday through to Monday’s fixture between Tottenham and Everton
