Jordan Henderson continued to use his platform for good as he spread the message behind the Rainbow Laces campaign.

Our captain was adorned in a rainbow captain’s armband, as well as the laces, during our 4-0 victory over Southampton.

This is part of a Premier League-wide scheme to raise awareness and support of LGBTQ+ people and particularly within sport.

Taking to social media after the game, our No.14 said:

The simple yet powerful message of ‘Football is for everyone‘ is exactly what this weekend is all about.

We’re lucky to have such a selfless and inspiring man wearing the armband and hopefully his support aids the progression of this important cause.

It’s an honour to have the 31-year-old leading our team on and off the pitch, in such a positive manner.
