The Premier League's proposal to introduce a play-off for the fourth Champions League place has stalled after clubs voted against looking into the idea for the time being.

At the Premier League's board meeting, chairmen decided against looking into the proposal any further at this stage after the idea surfaced following last month's meeting.
