English football club Leeds United have issued an apology after a cardboard cutout of former al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden appeared in the crowd during a game.
Many football teams have followed suit from the NRL where fans can pay for a cutout of them to sit in
the stands during matches after crowds were denied the chance to go to games during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The image of Bin Laden was spotted by a Leeds Utd fan whose image was placed next to the al-Qaeda leader, who was killed in 2011.
Leeds United said they "will ensure there are no more offensive images", BBC reports.
