The EFL have announced that any possible reform of the English structure will not involve the introduction of Premier League B teams into the pyramid.
And the EFL says clubs in League One, Two and the proposed League Three will play through any winter break, were one to be introduced.
The EFL and the 72 clubs they represent are assessing ideas for the reorganisation of the league,*which were put forward by the EFL Board in the summer.
The proposals could lead to a four-division structure for league football beneath the Premier League, in a bid to improve the format of competitions and the revenue received by clubs.
There could potentially be a vote on the plans in June 2017 but, on Thursday, it was agreed that any extra clubs entering the League will not be "Premier League B Teams, clubs from non-English leagues or those outside the English football pyramid".
