Premier League officials could soon start to train with clubs in the league thanks to an idea first pitched by Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick.
There have been mounting concerns over the current quality of officiating in the division among managers and Rangnick has suggested that referees and players train alongside each other in a bid to improve what looks to be a strained relationship. The former RB Leipzig boss claimed that by doing so, players will get to know officials far better than seeing them purely for fixtures.
Rangnick made the suggestion while addressing a recent summit between other managers in the league and head of Professional Game Match Officials Board Mike Riley. It received huge support from the other bosses present and has since also been backed by former Premier League referee Mark Clattenburg.
