The top five players in line to get the first-ever blue card in Premier League history are these five individuals. Since the 1970 World Cup, referees have been able to issue red and yellow cards, but it appears that they may soon be able to use a new color. The International Football Association Board (IFAB) has authorized the introduction of a blue card as part of a trial for sin-bins, according to The Telegraph.

Under the new policy, a player will receive a blue card and be sidelined for ten minutes if they commit a cynical foul or display disapproval towards an official. A player may be dealt a red card if they are dealt two blue cards or a combination of yellow and blue cards.

According to the Telegraph, "Top-tier competitions will be excluded from initial testing in the professional game in case the protocols require further refinement, but elite trials could still begin as soon as the summer." Aleksandr Ceferin, the outgoing head of UEFA, expressed his disapproval of sin bins to the Telegraph, stating that "football is no longer football." They won't be utilized by us in UEFA competitions."
