Premier League changes rules on 'weakened' teams
Top-flight clubs will now be allowed to pick any player in their 25-man matchday squad without fear of sanction from the Premier League.
The 20 Premier League clubs agreed at their AGM in early June that any combination of players named in their registered 25-man squads will be able to start a match.
The head of communications at the Premier League Dan Johnson confirmed that all the clubs were in favour of the rule change.
The rule has not been totally withdrawn, and clubs will still be at risk of a fine if they select a number of younger players from outside their 25-man squad.
