Kevin Behrens Disciplined for Remarks at Fan Event

Wolfsburg striker Kevin Behrens faced disciplinary action from his club after refusing to sign a rainbow-logoed jersey, making a homophobic remark at a fan event. Behrens, who has played for Germany once, apologized for his inappropriate comments, acknowledging that they were not okay. Despite his apology, the club confirmed that his actions were inconsistent with their values of diversity and tolerance. Wolfsburg's sporting director, Sebastian Schindzielorz, stated that Behrens is currently not participating with the team, indicating he is 'home alone.' The incident, which occurred during a signing session last month, has sparked significant backlash, and Behrens' future at Wolfsburg remains uncertain as his contract nears its end. This episode underscores Wolfsburg's commitment to promoting diversity, as they have used rainbow motifs on jerseys for the past five years.
