Wayne Hennessey: Football Association investigating ‘Nazi salute’ incident involving Crystal Palace goalkeeper
The incident which involved Crystal Palace goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey allegedly making a Nazi salute is being investigated by the Football Association.Wales international Hennessey appeared to be making the gesture in a picture posted on Instagram by team-mate Max Meyer as Crystal Palace’s players celebrated their FA Cup defeat of Grimsby on Saturday night.Hennessey is seen in the background of a group photograph posted on Meyer’s Instagram story, which has subsequently expired.2

The 31-year-old has since denied he was making a such a salute, claiming on Twitter that he was instead calling out to the person taking the photograph.“Yesterday evening I had a meal with my team mates and we had a group photograph,” Hennessey wrote.“I waved and shouted at the person taking the picture to get on with it and at the same time put my hand over my mouth to make the sound carry.“It’s been brought to my attention that frozen in a moment by the camera this looks like I am making a completely inappropriate type of salute. “I can assure everyone I would never ever do that and any resemblance to that kind of gesture is absolutely coincidental. Love and peace Wayne.”Despite Hennessey’s denial, it is understood the FA is looking into the matter, along with Crystal Palace.Hennessey was recalled to the starting line-up for the third round tie against Grimsby and he played the full 90 minutes.2
