The Premier League has moved a step closer to using automated technology to decide offside calls after a successful trial at a top-flight club.
The 'skeletal player tracking system', developed by HawkEye - who have had success with football's goal-line technology - provides an instant message to the referee, rather than the long waits often associated with VAR checks.
Match officials would still have to determine whether the offside player was interfering with play, but would no longer have to draw on offside lines as with VAR.
Sportsmail first revealed in October 2019 that the League were exploring the use of limb-tracking technology to provide instant calls on offsides.
