During the WFI elections, all eyes will be on people close to President Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh. Brij Bhushan, surrounded by allegations of sexual exploitation, will stay away from this election, but the companions can try their luck.

India's top wrestlers have been protesting for days for the WFI elections and against the removal of office-bearers, including President Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh. The wrestlers had accused some of the team's coaches, including Brij Bhushan, of sexual harassment.

The country's top wrestlers were openly fighting against Brij Bhushan Singh for 138 days. For the first time on January 18, wrestlers sat on dharna, and on April 23 started the second dharna. There was also an FIR against the wrestlers, but the protests continued. However, after a meeting between the wrestlers and Home Minister Amit Shah, the story changed and the wrestlers returned to work. After that, in the meeting held with Sports Minister Anurag Thakur, many issues were discussed and some matters were agreed upon. Then the wrestlers agreed not to protest till June 15.

In the meeting of the wrestlers with the Sports Minister, it was also agreed that no member of Brij Bhushan's family or his associate would contest the WFI elections. It will be interesting to see how many people associated with Brij Bhushan file nominations for the elections of the Federation. Brij Bhushan's son Karanbhushan Singh is the vice president of the wrestling federation. While his son-in-law Vishal Singh is the president of the Bihar Wrestling Association.

Issuance of voter list for WFI elections will not be easy. The Wrestling Federation has dissolved the Haryana, Karnataka, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh Wrestling Federations and established a new federation. Most of the cases are pending in the court. In such a situation, it will depend on the presiding officer whether he gives the right to vote to any state association.

WFI Elections will be held for 15 posts, one president, one senior vice-president, four vice-presidents, one secretary-general, one treasurer, two joint secretaries, and five executive committee members. The candidates will be able to withdraw their nominations between June 28 and July 1, following which the final list of the contesting candidates will be put up on July 2.

Full-time | Real Madrid 1-2 Valencia

Valencia have pulled off a shocking but deserving 2-1 win against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu!

It all started with a crazy first half, which started off with Mamardashvili denying Vinicius from the penalty spot in the 13th minute of the game. Right after the mishap, Mouctar Diakhaby headed it into the net for Valencia to put Valencia ahead. Despite a lot of chances, Real Madrid failed to net a goal in the first half. 

Los Blancos salvaged the equalizer only five minutes into the second half as Vinicius Jr flicked it home to level the score. However, a resilient Valencia defence led by Cesar Tarrega and custodian Giorgi Mamardashvili became the only difference between Madrid and a second goal. Kylian Mbappe failed to bag a goal despite many opportunities, whereas Valencia also failed to score in the regulation time.

However, Hugo Duro quieted the Bernabeu crowd with a striking header in the fifth minute of the stoppage time to snatch away all three points, securing a famous away win. Valencia have boasted their league position to avoid relegation, but Real Madrid have lost an important game in the road of their title chase.

After playing 88 matches for both the under-19 team and Bayern II, Muller made his senior Bayern Munich debut in the 2008-09 season. In the next season, Muller scored 19 goals and had 16 assists in 52 senior appearances. This helped him become a mainstay at the club. 

In his 17 years with the club, Thomas Muller won 32 trophies for the German giants. His trophy cabinet includes 12 Bundesliga titles, 11 of which came in consecutive seasons from 2012 through to 2023. 

Muller also went on to win two UEFA Champions League titles, one in 2013 and another one in 2020. 

In 2023, Muller signed a contract extension with Bayern Munich till June 2025. With Bayern not deciding to renew his contract, both parties mutually agreed to terminate the contract. 

"The club has consciously decided not to negotiate a new contract with me for next season,” Muller said. 

β€œEven if this did not correspond to my personal wishes, it is important that the club follows its convictions. Even after all these years, regardless of the minutes I play, I still have a lot of fun being on the pitch with the boys. I could have easily imagined playing this role next year as well.

β€œI respect this step, which the board and supervisory board certainly did not take lightly. I understandably did not like the back-and-forth in public over the past weeks and months. However, I treat it like I do my own football: It wasn’t always characterised by perfection either, but rather with a positive, forward-thinking approach to the next move. After a bad pass, it is important to win the ball back and be unified. We have achieved this in recent days with honest discussions on this matter as well," Muller added.
