Premier League clubs to debate extra substitutes

 Could there be extra subs on the bench at Old Trafford next season? United hope so


We're already looking forward to a brand new Premier League campaign - but what can we expect to be different next time round?
Sky Sports News HQ understands that next month Premier League clubs will discuss increasing the numbers of substitutes allowed on match days, from seven to nine.
Clubs will still only be allowed to use three substitutes - but we understand Manchester United and Chelsea are leading the push to add another two subs to the bench.
In 2008, the Premier League increased the numbers of subs allowed from five to seven.
The proposals will be discussed at the Premier League's AGM in June. This will be the first shareholders meeting for some time for Burnley, Middlesbrough and either Hull or Sheffield Wednesday.
Other things we know will be new for next season include live and exclusive Friday night Premier League football from Sky Sports.
A total of 10 Premier League matches will be shown here on Sky Sports on Friday nights  throughout the season.
Other changes for the next campaign will include a brand new substitute board - complete with a new sponsor in Tag Heuer.
Nike will launch the new 2016-2017 Premier League ball later this summer and the new Premier League logo will be seen everywhere - including on the sleeves of all players - and without the Barclays logo after the title sponsorship deal came to an end
Nigeria’s army on Wednesday confirmed that a girl rescued in a Boko Haram enclave in the northeast is one of 219 abducted from their school in Chibok more than two years ago. “This is to confirm that one of the abducted Chibok schoolgirls… was among rescued persons by our troops,” army spokesman Colonel Sani Usman said in a statement. Usman gave the girl’s name as Falmata Mbalala and said she was found in Baale, near the town of Damboa, which is 90 kilometres (56 miles) southwest of the Borno state capital, Maiduguri. Activists and community leaders said she was found on Tuesday night and brought to meet her mother in the town of Mbalala, near Chibok, before being taken to a military base in Damboa. Manaseh Allan, a Chibok youth leader, told AFP: “The girl was found by local vigilantes in Kilakesa village on the edge of Sambisa Forest near Damboa. “She was brought first to Chibok by the vigilantes who took her to the vice-principal of her school, who immediately identified her as Aisha Ali, which is her name in the school register. “She was presented to community leaders as Amina Ali but her name as it appears in the school register is Aisha Ali. “It is common for children in Chibok to be called with one name in school and another at home
