Tottenham will not take the knee before kick-off today because the anti-racism gesture "no longer feels meaningful".

The club's decision comes after Spurs and England forward Jessica Naz received racial abuse on social media last month.

"As players, we have chosen to not take the knee before kick-off this afternoon. Instead, we will stand up against racism," Tottenham captain Bethany England said.

With October marking Black History Month in the UK, the WSL has invited clubs "to take the knee as a symbol of solidarity against racism and discrimination".

Before Manchester United's 1-1 draw against Chelsea on Friday and Manchester City's 3-2 win over Arsenal on Saturday, players did not take the knee. Instead, both teams came together in the centre circle and linked arms.

You may have noticed that some teams are huddling together before kick-off in a show of unity in their battle against racism, marking Black History Month.

It is a player-led decision and was demonstrated before Manchester City’s victory over Arsenal last night at Joie Stadium.

City defender Kerstin Casparij posted on Instagram last night: “No-one wins while racism plays on. Racial abuse isn’t just one players’ burden - it’s our battle. To protect the game we must first protect each other.”

WSL Football have offered all clubs the decision on whether they want to take a knee but some, after the Lionesses’ decision in the summer to “stand up” to racism, have followed suit.

Tottenham forward Jess Naz and England defender Jess Carter are among those to have suffered racial abuse in recent months.
