Arsene Wenger presents radical offside idea to FIFA president Gianni Infantino

Arsene Wenger's radical idea to change the offside rule – which would see a player deemed onside if any part of them that can score a goal is in line with the second-last defender – has been presented to FIFA president Gianni Infantino.

The former Arsenal manager is now FIFA's chief of global football development and is leading the charge to change how the beautiful game is played.

Infantino said Wenger had given a presentation on a proposed change to the offside law – with the controversial idea being considered by FIFA's top men.
