There was no vote on the issue at the Premier League\u2019s AGM last summer.<\/p>\n<p>The Premier League are understood to be working with several technology companies over developing a similar automated system which does not feature a chip in the ball.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/03\/17\/76122345-0-image-a-18_1696351314740.jpg\" height=\"395\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Premier League&#8217;s plans to introduce automatic offside systems have been affected by their contract with Nike<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/03\/17\/76122337-0-image-a-19_1696351324990.jpg\" height=\"474\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>It comes as VAR technology has been at the heart of much controversy this weekend after Liverpool had a goal disallowed wrongfully in their 2-1 defeat by Tottenham\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The technology used by UEFA in the Champions League and Europa League does not involve putting a sensor in the ball either, despite the fact that they also have a contract with Adidas.<\/p>\n<p>While the Premier League are making progress there will be no move to introduce the new system midway through the current campaign despite the VAR debacle in Tottenham\u2019s 2-1 win over Liverpool on Saturday night, when the visitors had a Luis Diaz goal incorrectly ruled out for offside which Darren England failed to overturn on review.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, Serie A became the first domestic league to introduce an automated system halfway through last season, although the Italian version did not feature a chip in the Puma ball.<\/p>\n<p>The Premier League will end their 25-year partnership with Nike for a new deal with Puma at the start of the 2025-26 season, although by that stage it is anticipated that ball-tracking technology will be more widely available across all manufacturers.<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/03\/17\/76122391-0-image-a-22_1696351439940.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Premier League will end their 25-year deal with Nike, partnering up with Puma for the 2025-26 season<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/03\/17\/76019319-0-Liverpool_have_made_a_formal_request_to_receive_the_VAR_audio_fr-a-21_1696351340715.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Liverpool made a formal request to receive the VAR audio from the decision to disallow Luis Diaz&#8217;s goal for offside against Tottenham\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/03\/17\/76020191-0-The_Reds_led_by_Jurgen_Klopp_were_incensed_after_the_controversi-a-20_1696351339570.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Reds &#8211;
