The General Administration of Sports of China has banned football stars with tattoos from playing for the national team.
The football administration published a series of guidelines which automatically stops any member of the national team from getting new tattoos, according to Marca.
However, this is not the first time that tattoos have caused controversy in the Asian country’s football after their national team stars were reportedly banned from displaying them back in 2018.
The directive aims to urge footballers to set “positive examples for society”, also advising those who have already tattooed themselves to get rid of them immediately.
