A report has claimed that a Premier League footballer believes he "will be crucified" if he comes out as gay and has undergone therapy in fear of homophobic abuse from fans

A gay Premier League footballer is undergoing therapy over fears of abuse from fans, according to a report.

The top-flight star said his situation is "terrifying" and that he "will be crucified" if he comes out as homosexual.

Former Norwich City striker and England youth international Justin Fashanu came out in 1990 and took his own life eight years later following his retirement.

Since then, there has not been an active player from England's top tier to follow in Fashanu's footsteps by publicly revealing that they are gay.

The Sun report that campaigner Amal Fashanu, his niece, has spoken to the unnamed Premier League player, who believes he should be able to come out without being subjected to abuse in 2021.

But the star believes some supporters on the terraces are 'still in the 1980s,' when the topic of homosexuality was more taboo.
