Premier League clubs have voted in favour of continuing to use VAR in the top flight of English football, the league has announced.
All 20 top-flight clubs decided whether to abolish VAR after Wolves called for a vote to get rid of it at their Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Thursday morning. Wolves have been on the end of several controversial refereeing decisions this season.
However, Wolves were the only club to vote to abolish the system – with the other 19 clubs all voting in favour of keeping VAR in its current format.
The Premier League said: “Premier League clubs today voted in favour of continuing to operate VAR in the Premier League. While VAR produces more accurate decision-making, it was agreed that improvements should be made for the benefit of the game and supporters.
