Players should be punished immediately if they cover their mouths while speaking to an opponent or referee, Clarence Seedorf said, as Slavia Prague defender Underrej Kudela covered his mouth when he allegedly offended Rangers opponent Glenn Camara during a Europa League match last month. He denies the racist abuse of Camara but decided to suspend UEFA for one match after he had effectively confessed to a charge less insulting to the Finn, with the comment being issued “without prejudice” to any ruling the commission might make regarding allegations of racism.

The need is very clear and urgent,” said Seedorf. “From the players’ point of view, I have seen things with players talking and covering their mouth during matches. There have been some racist situations in the past weeks or months where the players have made hate speech between them. ”These things can be easily attacked by applying some rules. Picture: Seedorf has suggested yellow card penalties for players who insist on covering their mouths “When we talk about sports it should be completely transparent, so why should I cover my mouth if I need to talk to my opponent?” If I want to talk to my coach or one of my teammates, Everything is fine, but when you approach the referee or another player in any sport, you are not allowed to cover your mouth, it must be a penalty, a yellow card. “Hate Won’t Stop Us Sky Sports is committed to making skysports.com and our social media channels a place for comment and debate free from hate, hate and profanity.
