Controversial status-out situation, FIFA president open to change

FIFA President Gianni Infantino has stated that he is open to discuss a possible change in his position out of play, following the numerous controversy the latest (VAR) technology has brought about.

The board of the International Football Association (IFAB) will meet on Saturday to discuss the VAR and about the offline position, however Infantino indicated that no proposal has been put on the table until now.

“I'm personally for the discussion to create a new way about the old position and see if it works, because I think it's more of a understanding issue.

Some of the decisions are so controversial, so it's hard to decide if it's out of the game. We need to see if we can clarify this rule even more. However, the suggestions are only for discussion, and then it will be decided whether they will be tested,” said Infantino to reporters.
