England manager Gareth Southgate has said he is unhappy some fans will not feel able to travel to Qatar for November's World Cup due to concerns over human rights issues in the country.
"There are the issues that potentially threaten our fans when they travel - the rights of women and the rights of the LGBTQ+ community in particular," said Southgate. "We stand for inclusivity as a team - that's been the big driver of a lot of the stances we've taken in the last couple of years. During qualifying for the tournament, which kicks off on November 21, players from Norway, Netherlands and Germany staged protests to highlight concerns over human rights issues in Qatar.
