The IFAB (International Football Association Board) are the body that governs the laws of football and are made up of the four home nations and FIFA. A meeting will take place at Wembley today with FIFA supremo Gianni Infantino to ratify the rule changes to be introduced next season.
 
High on the agenda is the use of video replays which goes beyond the goalline technology currently used in the Premier League and other top leagues around the world. The meeting will ultimately decide at which round of the competition the new technology will be introduced with the FA expected to call a press-conference shortly after to explain what agreement has been reached.
