Justin Fashanu's life from becoming first footballer to come out as gay to tragic death aged 37
Blackpool’s Jake Daniels has become the UK’s first currently active male professional footballer to come out as gay. The 17-year-old forward is the first Briton in the men’s professional game to come out publicly since Justin Fashanu in 1990 and said he was inspired by Tom Daley and other athletes from around the world.
