ENGLAND captain Harry Kane will wear an anti-discrimination armband during this winter’s Qatar World Cup.

The Football Association has joined nine other European federations, including the Football Association of Wales, in supporting a season-long OneLove campaign against discrimination.

Kane and the captains of the eight other countries who have qualified for the World Cup will wear the OneLove armband in Qatar, where same-sex relationships are criminalised. He will wear the armband for the first time in Friday night’s Nations League match against Italy.
