Sport today is dominated by a power struggle at the top of world football, with UEFA warning it will boycott FIFA competitions, including the World Cup, if Gianni Infantino presses ahead with plans to sell stakes in the tournament to private investors. In England, Newcastle United face a reset after Eddie Howe’s abrupt departure ends a near five-year spell in charge, leaving fresh uncertainty around one of the Premier League’s most ambitious projects. In the U.S., the WNBA was forced into an awkward retreat, deleting and apologizing for a post that appeared to show Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers discussing a wager on a league game, a sharp misstep in an era of intense scrutiny around sports betting. And cricket bids farewell to one of India’s calmest modern figures, as Ajinkya Rahane retires after a distinguished international career highlighted by that famous series win in Australia.
