Premier League to publish verdicts on referee and VAR decisions

Selected direct quotes of the referee and/or the video assistant referee will be published on the Premier League's Match Centre account on X, on the Premier League website and the Premier League app to try to provide the rationale behind a decision.

Pro Pre hopes to give supporters greater understanding of refereeing decisions by opening up communication The full judgements made by the Key Match Incidents Panel on referee and video assistant referee decisions will be shared with fans for the first time this season.

The Premier League and Pro Ref are trying to take steps to increase transparency in decisions while still being limited by the International Football Association Board's (IFAB) refusal to permit the live broadcast of VAR discussions.
