The Premier League will monitor player goal celebrations and may consider imposing sanctions if they feel they are damaging the reputation of the game or could inflame opposition fans or players.
The news comes after some players received criticism for celebrations many feel crossed the line by mocking opponents.
Iliman Ndiaye received a yellow card after he scored Everton's winner against Brighton and then celebrated by flapping his arms like a seagull.
But when Myles Lewis-Skelly mimicked Erling Haaland in his goal celebration at the Emirates, he received no punishment. Arsenal went on to beat Manchester City 5-1 on Sunday.
Former Arsenal forward Theo Walcott praised Lewis-Skelly for his strength of character, saying: "He was not afraid of Haaland at all."
However, Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher both said they thought the 18-year-old's actions were disrespectful.
The celebration came after Haaland mocked the Lewis-Skelly at the end of an ill-tempered 2-2 draw at the Etihad in September, taunting him by asking: "Who are you?"
In the past, Jamie Vardy has mimicked an eagle when scoring against Crystal Palace and was criticised by some for his interactions with the Tottenham supporters at the end of last month, when Leicester beat Tottenham 2-1. He received no caution for either action.
Similarly, Neal Maupay was thought to be mocking James Maddison when he copied the midfielder's darts celebration after scoring for Brentford against Spurs a year ago.
Maddison then criticised Maupay in his post-match interview and the forward hit back on social media.
This season, Phil Foden and Joshua Zirkzee have pretended to fire guns towards the crowd after scoring goals but received no punishment.
In the NFL, players who imitate the shooting of weapons when celebrating face heavy post-match fines.
The Premier League's chief football officer, Tony Scholes, said: "There's a balance. I think we all like to see celebrations. Some of the celebrations have been very funny, entertaining, but there's a line.
"Once it crosses over into mockery or criticism then we would need to deal with it."
Scholes also said he is concerned that the gulf between the Championship and the Premier League is making it more difficult for promoted teams to compete.
Last season, for the first time in 26 years, all three promoted teams were relegated back down to the EFL at the first time of asking. As things stand this season, the three promoted clubs currently occupy the three relegation places in the Premier League - Southampton, Ipswich and Leicester.
Furthermore, the number of points it has taken to survive in the top division has decreased over recent years. Last season, Nottingham Forest survived with a 32-point total. The previous season, Everton stayed up on 36 points. In 2022, Leeds were the lowest-ranked survivors with a total of 38 points.
"That's a significant matter. We keep a close eye on that," said Scholes. "The quality of this league is just unbelievable. Clubs coming up out of the Championship into this league do find it incredibly difficult. We see that.
"Ipswich, for example, have invested a lot of money this year. Hopefully they're there, they've got a chance of staying up, but right now they're in a difficult position.
"It is difficult to break in. But no, it would not be good for the league if the three who are coming up went back down again year on year."
Scholes also revealed this season has seen a record number of homegrown players make their top-flight debuts.
A homegrown player is a player who has been registered with an FA or FA of Wales affiliated club for three entire seasons before their 21st birthday. It is irrespective of their nationality or current age.
There have been 54 different homegrown players making their Premier League debuts so far in 2024/25, compared with 45 by this stage last season.
It is worth noting at promoted Ipswich, for instance, all but two of their 25-player Premier League squad qualify as homegrown, including 32-year-old Sam Morsy, who was among the players from Ipswich to play in the top flight for the first time this term.
