"For the remainder of the 2019/2020 season, the number of substitutes that can be used during a match will increase from three to five players," the Premier League said in a statement.
"This is in line with the temporary rule change made by IFAB last month," the league added.
In addition, the Premier League has approved that clubs can have nine players on the bench instead of seven for the remainder of the season.
Premier League clubs are meeting this Thursday to discuss issues such as what will happen in the event that the season needs to be shortened, whether or not certain matches will be played behind closed doors, and the use of VAR.
These are uncertainties that need to be resolved before the Premier League resumes on June 17 with the matches Aston Villa-Sheffield United and Manchester City-Arsenal.
