The Premier League has announced it will introduce the International Football Association Board's (IFAB) additional permanent concussion substitutions trial.
This will mean that a maximum of two concussion substitutes can be used per team, with the opposition side able to use the equivalent number. Additional concussion substitutions may be made regardless of the number of substitutions a team have made already.
The shareholders vote took place today, making the Premier League the first competition to approve permanent concussion substitutes. The start date has not yet been announced.
