Josh Cavallo alleges Adelaide United exit was driven by homophobia within the club
Josh Cavallo has alleged that his exit from Adelaide United was driven by homophobia within the club.
The 26-year-old midfielder, who became the first active top-flight male professional footballer to come out as gay, issued a detailed public statement on Instagram on Monday evening (12 January) claiming that he was deliberately sidelined under the club’s new management because of his sexuality.
Alongside an image with his fiancé, Leighton Morrell, on a football pitch, he wrote, “It’s taken me a while to digest how my time at Adelaide United ended, but I think the fans deserve honesty.
“Leaving the club had nothing to do with football. Decisions were made by people in power that blocked my opportunities, not because of my talent, but because of who I choose to love. Under the new management, it became clear that I wasn’t allowed on the pitch because of politics. It’s hard to swallow when I realised my own club was homophobic.”
