FIFA Urges Bundesliga To 'Use Common Sense' Over George Floyd Support

The club is investigating three players for their displays of support for George Floyd.

FIFA has asked the Bundesliga to 'use common sense' as they investigate three players for their displays of support for George Floyd.

Borussia Dortmund duo Jadon Sancho and Achraf Hakimi (PRON: ak-raf hak-ee-me) displayed a 'Justice for George Floyd' message when lifting their shirts after scoring at the weekend.

Schalke's (PRON: shal-keh) Weston McKennie wore an armband with a similar message and league bosses have said they are reviewing the incidents which are punishable by FIFA rules.

However world football's governing body said in a statement that competition organisers "should use common sense and have in consideration the context surrounding the events".
