Top Premier League officials are considering the biggest revamp of VAR since its introduction by making one huge change wanted by football fans.
VAR has been a part of top-flight football since the 2019-20 season, but the response has been mixed from players and team staff, while supporters at the ground and at home have been feeling left out of the full picture.
The Professional Game Match Officials Board (PGMOL) believe that one simple switch in protocol could create a better experience for those following games.
Fans cannot hear conversations between match officials as they deliberate decisions using VAR - but PGMOL is now considering allowing those in the stadium to hear these talks for greater transparency.
Reporter Rob Dorsett told Sky Sports: 'It's complicated because IFAB have never allowed live audio between match officials to be broadcast to the crowd. But PGMOL would like that to happen.
