FIGC President Gabriele Gravina confirms there will be five replacements, even in the 2020/21 season in Serie A.
The emergency decision was introduced to prevent injuries and fatigue in the post-OVID deadlock period, when matches played in summer heat every three days.
FIFA gave permission for the rule to continue for the 2020/21 campaign, due to unusual circumstances that continue to affect football.
“Lega Serie A has requested the application of five replacements during the 2020/21 season,” explained Grava at a press conference, accompanied by FIFA President Gianni Infantino.
So I can say today that there will be five replacements since the beginning of the” season.
So far, only Premierligla in England has dismissed the possibility of using the five replacement rules.
