Premier League clubs will have their top stars at their disposal this weekend after being cleared to do so by FIFA.

The Brazilian Football Confederation dropped its demands for world football's governing body to enforce rules relating to their non-appearance for international duty.

It will be welcome news for the likes of Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea

It's understood that Brazil and Chile have agreed to waive the rule preventing players from playing for five days if they fail to report for international duty, following extensive talks between FIFA and the relevant associations.

Premier League clubs made a collective decision not to release players for duty if it meant them travelling to red-list countries as they would face 10 days of quarantine on their return.

Mexico had earlier withdrawn their complaint, freeing Wolves forward Raul Jimenez, while Newcastle boss Steve Bruce revealed on Friday that an agreement had been reached meaning that Paraguay midfielder Miguel Almiron could travel to Manchester United.

This is a breaking news story. More updates will follow shortly.
