There was something like this a while ago but nothing came of it in the end.. this one seems a little different though, especially if theres two. Pretty big news if it happens & its about time.
Quote:
The two players – including an England international – have told family and friends, and are being supported by their clubs and the Football Association.
We are not revealing their names. They would become the first ever players to publicly announce they are gay while in the top flight of English
football. The stars are thought to be planning to go public before the start of next season.
We can also reveal that another well known player came out to friends in 2011.
But a homophobic word was then daubed in paint across his car.
It is understood he is now reluctant to come out publicly in case he is the target for more abuse.
