Level 4 Referee
Noticed this scrolling through X today and obviously wasn’t expecting anything given at this level. But during the game Haaland takes his under shirt off and infront of the referee has a whoop band around his arm.

If this was at a lower level is anyone doing anything as I’m not sure where the lotg stand on arm jewellery? I’m leaning on the side of “must have missed it”.

Very similar to a smart watch in how it tracks body data, except isn’t a watch. Close in physical design to those trackers players wear in their bibs
 
Wonder if other City players had one on, obviously wouldn't know unless they take their shirts off. Could fall under the EPTS part of law 4?

Allowed in those competitions which authorise their use - which includes the Premier League (and many other leagues all the way down to semi-Pro)

Quite. The following would seem applicable.

Where wearable technology (WT) as part of electronic performance and tracking systems (EPTS) is used in matches played in an official competition organised under the auspices of FIFA, confederations or national football associations, the competition organiser must ensure that the technology attached to the players' equipment is not dangerous and meets the requirements for wearable EPTS under the FIFA Quality Programme for EPTS .
