The Premier League reportedly plans to release in-game conversations between VAR officials this season.
The technology has been a controversial topic since its introduction in 2019, with many frustrated about the lack of clarity on decision-making from officials when in use. The Times report that exchanges with on-field and VAR officials could be made public in a first for the Premier League.
Referees do not conduct post-match interviews to explain their thoughts on incidents with worries that these would inevitably solely focus on negative or incorrect decisions. The choice to potentially air VAR conversations may help mitigate the annoyance felt by supporters.
