A wildly absurd rumour has been circulating on X in recent days: the Premier League had supposedly decided to ban knee-slide celebrations starting January 1st, with an automatic yellow card as the penalty. The reasons cited? “Turf burns” and “joint strain.” Quite something.
No, the Premier League has not banned knee-slide celebrations (though the Internet had a good laugh). Naturally… it’s 100% false.
Clarifying the Rumour Surrounding Knee-Slide Celebrations
No official announcement, no statement, no referee, no club has mentioned any end to knee-slide celebrations. The League has made absolutely no change to its regulations.
The so-called “news” actually comes from a parody account known for posting absurd fake stories. Its bio is crystal clear: “Everything I post is made up.”
In short: knee-slide celebrations are not going anywhere… even if physiotherapists might have welcomed a real ban. A relief as well for Kylian Mbappé, a fan of this type of slide. He’ll still be able to pull it off in the Premier League after Real Madrid.
