THE LATEST ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE NEWS – Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand and his brother Anton from Queens Park Rangers are set to observe the customary football pre-match handshake when they face Chelsea’s Ashley Cole and John Terry.

Rio, who played past through rival Stoke City in the Premier League without wearing Kick It Out’s anti-racism campaign’s shirt, expressed his dismay over racism prevailing in the game.  Anton figured in a controversy with Terry, whose racist language used against the QPR defender cost him a four-match domestic match ban and a £220,000 fine.

In a statement, the Ferdinand brothers called upon Kick It Out to strengthen their campaign against racism, despite praising the group for embarking on a remarkable move to raise awareness among people.
