Premier League Captains to Wear Special Armbands in Support of Ukraine
All 20 Premier League captains will wear special blue-and-yellow armbands this weekend in support of Ukraine, the league announced yesterday.
An image was shared showing the supposed design of the armband. It's blue for the top half and yellow for the bottom, based on the flag of Ukraine and featuring the text Football Stands Together in its center.
Premier League clubs all use the same captain's armbands, and there have been previous occasions where special armbands have been used, such as when supporting the Rainbow Laces campaign.
This is everyone's game

In addition to that, the same image will also be shown on the big screens at stadiums as well as the LED ad boards. There will also be a "moment of reflection and solidarity" before kick-off at each game.
