I’m honestly shocked this is newsworthy. Getting 90s vibes.
Why is this news?
Good for him! The sports world is notoriously homophobic, so it’s really crucial for athletes to come out and be seen.
And? Whats the point?
Really important international-worthy news! This really gives new perspective on the whole European continent!
But for real, why do we have to obsess about who some random sportsmen likes to fuck?
This shouldn’t be news.
Was it a secret?
So?
Like Ellen?
At first I was like “yeah, so?”
then I went on a polish football group (that has like 80k members mind you), and oh lord, the disgusting amount of homophobia there… Yeah, glad he did it hope more will follow
Respect
Great for him…but if you watch football you know that football fans are by far the most primitive so that’s not gonna be a pleasant experience, unfortunately
Welcome to the club. You’re making a difference, dude!
Imagine the courage one requires for coming out as gay in football, knowing that entire stadiums will target you for it. Hero.
This should be as newsworthy as say Beckham saying he’s always been heterosexual.
On one hand I could not care what kind of sex this guy likes to have, on the other I am baffled that so many do.
Good for him.
How is this still a thing? Soccer dragging its knuckles.
Ok?
Thank you very much for doing that sir.
This is going to inspire many kids/teen who feel bad about their own sexuality because of the machismo in football
It’s so important especially because the young look up to athletes and we have to make them understand that this is just totally normal.
Wow. I have so much respect for him, if I’m not mistaken he’s the highest profile player up until now to come out as gay.

Glad he had the confidence and support to come out, and hope that he inspires more gay athletes to do the same
Have we crossed into double digits yet? (Specifically about active, not retired footballers).
Good for him, though I do feel bad for his ex. [She obviously didn’t know what she was signing up for back in the day.](https://www.expres.cz/sport/jakub-jankto-fotbal-rozchod-pritelkyne-marketa-ottomanska.A220323_104411_dx-sport_lare) Sucks when others get caught up in the closet drama.
