Eric Cantona calls for Israel to be kicked out of all football

Cantona said: “I played for France and Manchester United. I know that international football is more than just sport. It is culture, it is political, it is soft power.

“In a way that a country represents itself on a global stage, the time has come to suspend Israel from that privilege.

“Four days after Russia started a war in Ukraine, Fifa and Uefa suspended Russia. We are now 716 days into what Amnesty International have called a genocide. And, yet, Israel continue to be allowed to participate.

“Why? Why is it double standards? Fifa and Uefa must suspend Israel. Clubs everywhere must refuse to play Israeli teams. Current players everywhere must refuse to play against Israeli teams.”
