Sport today ranged from celebration to controversy and geopolitics. In England, Bruno Fernandes capped Manchester United’s return to the Champions League by being named Premier League Player of the Season, his 20 assists matching a competition record and underlining his influence in a campaign that ended with United third. Off the pitch, politics intruded on football in two very different ways: Iran says FIFA has approved moving its 2026 World Cup training base from the United States to Mexico because of visa and security concerns, while Prime Minister Keir Starmer has urged TNT Sports to make the Arsenal-PSG Champions League final free-to-air for UK viewers. In North Africa, Morocco’s King Mohammed VI pardoned 18 Senegal fans jailed after violence linked to the AFCON final. And in a troubling development from Switzerland, former Formula 1 champion Alain Prost was reportedly injured in an alleged masked robbery at his home near Geneva, with police investigating.
