SPORTS NEWS – Rule change in the English Premier League! Next season…



According to the written statement made by the Premier League, in line with the decision taken today, substitutions can be made at 3 different times during a match and between halftime, and a total of nine players can be added to the substitute list.


Due to the Kovid-19 pandemic, the right to change five players was introduced in European football in May 2020. Since last season, the English Premier League has started to apply the 3-substitution rule again.


The Premier League did not implement 5 substitutions this season, as it felt that clubs with larger squads were given an unfair advantage.


Starting April 4, the twice-weekly COVID-19 testing practice for players and staff will also be removed, and only those who show symptoms will be tested.
