Idrissa Gueye: Le Mans FC Faces Call for Boycott from LGBT+ Associations

Idrissa Gueye's entry into the ownership group of Le Mans FC has triggered a boycott call from a coalition of LGBT+ associations criticizing the club's decision and citing Gueye's 2022 refusal to wear a rainbow-colored jersey during a Ligue 1 match. The collective condemns the club for prioritizing financial interests over ethical values and highlights Gueye's previous stance against participating in anti-homophobia campaigns. The controversy revives debates about Gueye, who now plays for Al-Diriyah, following his past refusal to wear rainbow jerseys during awareness days in Ligue 1.
