Football law makers will discuss the introduction of temporary concussion substitutes in a ground-breaking move which is likely to have the backing of the Premier League.
The issue will be dealt with on Monday by the International Football Association Board (Ifab) which last year approved trials of permanent concussion substitutes.
The FA and Premier League took part in those trials, allowing clubs two extra replacements if players show signs of a head injury.
However there is now a drive to adopt the use of temporary substitutes, which would bring football into line with rugby
The issue will be discussed at Ifab’s annual general meeting which is taking place in Doha on Monday.
