Revealed: Key change to VAR set to come in next season as Premier League clubs prepare to vote on whether to scrap the controversial technology

VAR officials will receive guidance to only intervene in Premier League matches when the officials are 'clearly wrong' in a bid to finesse the usage of the controversial technology, according to reports.

English top-flight clubs are set to vote on scrapping the system at their AGM next month after a vote was tabled by Wolves to get rid of VAR five seasons after its introduction in 2019.

While the vote is unlikely to see the technology abandoned due to a bid to maintain consistency with conditions clubs will face in European competitions, a number of changes are set to be introduced in a bid to improve after an error-strewn season.
