The English Football League are looking at making a new proposal which would see new rules be put in place concerning the selection of under-strength teams next season.

A number of clubs supported a proposal which would see managers have to select a minimum number of players who played in their side's last match.

The proposal comes after the EFL's Summer Conference discusses Huddersfield's 2-0 loss to Birmingham last season, where the Terriers made ten changes after David Wagner's side has already qualified for the Play-offs.

The EFL investigated Huddersfield's team selection but was unable to take any action because there are currently no guidelines on how to define what a full-strength team is.

An EFL statement said: "The circumstances faced by the EFL at the end of the season in relation to the requirement for members to play full-strength sides in league matches were considered. The EFL is working up a policy to determine what constitutes a full-strength team to remove any further potential reputational damage to the EFL and its competitions.

"A significant number of clubs supported preliminary proposals that would require managers to include a yet to be defined number of outfield players who featured on the team sheet in the previous game.

"This requirement would take effect from the fourth Thursday in March to the conclusion of the season".
