The Premier League is reportedly set to introduce "limb-tracking technology" developed by Hawk-Eye in order to enhance VAR decisions.

The introduction of VAR has caused controversy so far this season, particularly with a number of tight offside calls going against attacking players.

The accuracy of technology to make decisions with such fine margins has come in for serious questioning - but chiefs are planning an improved system to address concerns.

According to Sportsmail , Hawk-Eye, who developed goal-line technology and the review systems in cricket and tennis, are developing a new system.

The use of multiple cameras will give video assistants access to an automated offside line in real time, tracking the back foot of every outfield player in each VAR game to provide a constant offside line to be instantly assessed when necessary.

At present, video referees construct a new offside line via a use of lines on existing replays whenever an incident is reviewed, creating lengthy and frustrating delays.

The new technology is designed solely to assist with offside calls, with referees' chief Mike Riley being kept updated as it is developed.

The latest development comes as Premier League bosses prepare to meet to discuss a review of the current VAR system.

In 100 top flight games, 26 decisions have so far been overturned, but not once has a referee consulted the pitchside monitor with officials encouraged to minimise delays by leaving decision-making to the VAR.

The Premier League's 17 Select Group One referees are set to meet with bosses on Thursday to report progress on the use of VAR this season before possible changes are made.
