After five seasons of VAR in the Premier League, it is time for a constructive and critical debate on its future. Our position is that the price we are paying for a small increase in accuracy is at odds with the spirit of our game, and as a result we should remove it from the 2024-25 season onwards.
Wolves listed a series of reasons for their resolution and said at the moment VAR is inadvertently undermining the value of the Premier League brand. They said erosion of trust and reputation has fuelled completely nonsensical allegations of corruption.
The Premier League can confirm it will facilitate a discussion on VAR with our clubs at the annual general meeting next month. However, the league fully supports the use of VAR and remains committed, alongside PGMOL [Professional Game Match Officials Limited], to make continued improvements to the system for the benefit of the game and fans.
