World football governing body FIFA announced on Friday that the use of concussion substitutes will be tested at the Club World Cup in Qatar in February.
According to a FIFA statement, it will “trial additional permanent substitutions for cases of actual or suspected concussion” at the seven-team tournament, which will be the first time that concussion substitutes will be allowed in an international football competition.
In the Qatar Club World Cup, scheduled to be held from February 1 to 10, a team can use one more substitute per match for players’ suspected concussion in addition to the team’s five regular substitutes, Xinhua news agency reports.
FIFA said it could reduce the pressure on medical personnel to make a quick assessment and send a strong message that “if in any doubt, the player should be withdrawn”.
