Premier League players will again take the knee following a discussion between club captains, Daily Mail Sport understands.
The anti-racism gesture started in the UK following the death in police custody of American George Floyd, as part of an effort to show support for the Black Lives Matter movement.
In August 2022, clubs stopped taking the knee before every game following consultation with players.
Instead, it was decided to limit the gesture to No Room for Racism rounds of fixtures.
Last season, players took the knee twice in October, which was Black History Month in the UK.

It is expected that the gesture will again be performed twice in the coming season. There has been debate over whether the move is effective.Β
Last season, most Womenβs Super League sides decided against taking the knee in matches in Black History Month, amid a view that it was no longer meaningful in the midst of a rise in racist incidents.
The Premier League has been contacted for comment.
