NEW DELHI: Flustered by the frequent injury breakdowns of players in the Indian team, the medical team at the Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru is looking to resurrect its fitness programme. TOI understands that the CoE is finally working on standardising base fitness parameters after it emerged that the non-definitive customised fitness tests for players were identified as a core reason for the drop in the overall fitness standards.The Indian team went through a change in fitness testing drills after Adrian Leroux replaced Soham Desai as the strength and conditioning coach last year. It is learnt that the BCCI medical team, which includes the CoE and the Indian team, has struggled to work in sync to assess the fitness of players. Since Leroux took over, it was decided that the Bronco test would be the primary test to judge fitness instead of the Yo-Yo test.The Bronco test, which is a more agility driven test, didnt have a base parameter till now. TOI has learnt that the BCCI medical team has rolled out a figure of 5.15-5.20 minutes as a base figure to complete the assorted drills to be declared fit enough to be selected after the debacle in white-ball tour of Ireland and England. Earlier, the BCCI had set 16.5 as a marker to clear the basic Yo-Yo test. The CoE has also set 9-10 minute mark to complete the 2 km running test which is known as the 2K test.BCCI pulls up lacklustre fitness testsThe Indian players are not used to the Bronco test. Over the last year, the CoE had set different base parameters for players. It has now emerged that certain senior players were given much comfortable targets to meet to clear fitness tests. The CoE staff had also cleared players like Harshit Rana and Nitish Kumar Reddy to make sure it was delivering players according to team managements needs, a BCCI source told TOI.TOI has learnt that the team management and BCCI, led by secretary Devajit Saikia, has questioned Team India physio Kamlesh Jain for the repeated breakdowns and overall dip in the fitness standards. The team management is also not happy with players cramping so frequently even in the favourable English weather.Kamlesh has been told that he shouldnt worry about any players stature and flag anything that he doesnt find satisfactory. It has been seen that the mobility of some of the players in the field has been questionable. Senior batters are struggling to push their running between the wickets as they bat longer. The number of slow fielders has increased, the source said.Communication breakdownIt has been observed that regular India players have not been prepared for the new fitness drills. For instance, someone like Mohammed Siraj was recently caught off guard by the sudden fitness tests at CoE before leaving for Sri Lanka.It is only now that contracted players have been handed the base parameters of the new tests. The Test regulars were caught off guard by the programme given to them at CoE. The players who are not part of the Test team are now starting to work according to the base parameter, the source said. The CoE failed to get Jasprit Bumrah ready despite the selectors and the team management were assured that he would be fit for the first Test in Sri Lanka on Aug 15.In the case of Harshit Rana, which has been an embarrassment for the CoE since he had just recovered from a knee injury, there was no clear messaging about the desired fitness levels. TOI understands that Rana had suffered severe cramps and not any injury when he was sent back to the CoE from England after the third T20I. It was cited that he was overweight.The Indian team management flagged that he was overweight by four kgs. The CoE should have been much more vigilant. He has been now told by CoE staff that his weight cant exceed 96 kgs. He is now 94 kgs and is expected to be cleared next week. But he was 97 kgs when he was cleared to be picked for the Indian team for the UK tour, the source said.Injury prevention lost priorityThe Indian team management had finally got it right when it managed to play three consecutive ICC events the 2023 ODI World Cup, 2024 T20 World Cup and 2025 Champions Trophy with all resources available. Only Hardik Pandya suffered an injury after twisting his ankle in the 2023 World Cup. BCCI had devised an impeccable injury management programme and customised for each player.TOI understands that the fitness programmes have drifted away from prevention to a more rigorous approach. Now, a player at CoE is made to take a 2K test and Bronco test more frequently besides the Yo-Yo test which burns out players. Earlier, it was about maintaining certain fitness marks for players without burning them out with fitness regimes. Yo-Yo tests were designed to be taken in six months or if a player is coming back from injury. The other management had made notes of pressure points for each player and accordingly regulated the workload. Now, the players are just pushed to do extreme fitness programmes, the source claimed.

Embattled Fifa president Gianni Infantino has apologised for mistakes over his controversial World Cup sell-off plan but senior leaders at world footballs governing body have reaffirm[ed] their full support for him after a crisis meeting on Wednesday.Infantino was forced to abandon his plans namely to sell stakes in the World Cup and other Fifa tournaments to private investors after public uproar last week, with Uefa confirming a boycott of Fifa events if the plan was voted through. On Tuesday, Jordan FA president Prince Ali bin Hussein accused Infantino of blackmail and, under immense pressure, with his job seemingly on the line, the Swiss-Italian called an emergency meeting with the Fifa management board in Morocco.Gianni Infantino has retained the support of Fifa (PA Wire)A letter released by Fifa on Wednesday evening was signed by both Infantino and Fifa secretary general Mattias Grafstrom, even though the latter is understood to have written an email to staff on Tuesday in which he described Infantinos proposal as sad and reproachable.It showed a far more united front than that email would suggest and saw the president admits that mistakes were made in the process of setting out his sell-off plans his first public apology for the scheme.We acknowledge mistakes were made in the process of the proposed establishment of FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE), read part of the letter. It was certainly not the intention for the FIFA Council and FIFA Member Associations to feel excluded from the process and it should have been handled differently. We acknowledge that errors were also made after the proposal was leaked to media.We sincerely apologise for these errors and commit to them not happening again. With this in mind, we will conduct a necessary review, and a report will be presented to the FIFA Council at its next scheduled meeting.Infantino did say mistakes were made in the process of the World Cup sell-off plan (PA Wire)However, any suggestion that Infantino might resign, or otherwise be forced out of his job by senior figures at the governing body, were also nipped in the bud with a clear show of support for the embattled president.For the avoidance of doubt, the FIFA Secretary General and the Management Board in attendance reaffirm their full support for FIFA President Gianni Infantino, as the only official elected by the 211 FIFA Member Associations, read part of the statement. It was discussed and agreed at the meeting that the processes, communications and interactions between the FIFA President, the FIFA Secretary General and the Management Board that support the delivery of this vision can and should always be continuously improved in terms of their effectiveness and efficiency.We are fully confident that the outcomes of today's meeting will strengthen FIFA's governance, help restore confidence in the organisation and enable us to prepare for the major events and challenges ahead in a united and transparent manner while continuing our mission to develop the game around the world.The statement also went on to say that any attacks on Fifas integrity or good governance will not be accepted and seemed to suggest that now the sell-off plan has been abandoned, the whole situation should be quietly forgotten.Infantino also said attacks on Fifas integrity would not be tolerated (PA)The proposal, which would have been subject to the approval of the FIFA Member Associations and the FIFA Council, is now off the table, read another part of the statement. With the project withdrawn, FIFA will no longer tolerate any attacks on its integrity, good governance and due process and will take all necessary measures to protect and safeguard its name and reputation. There are always lessons to be learned, and we will continue to improve our processes in light of this experience. In this instance, however, it is important to stress that, although mistakes were made, everything that was done, was done in full compliance with the FIFA regulatory framework.Infantino still faces a barrage of criticism from outside Fifa however, with a number of countries having withdrawn support for his presidency ahead of the election in March 2027.Real Madrid and Portugal legend Luis Figo, who works as an adviser for Uefa, hit out at Infantino on Wednesday and implored him to resign, saying: I could write 10,000 words on the problems at Fifa. But the solution needs only three: Infantino must go. Canadian prime minister Mark Carney also said he no longer has confidence Infantino, explaining he felt the Fifa president committed a fatal governance failure by not consulting senior advisers. Certainly I dont have confidence in Mr Infantino, said Carney, who had appeared alongside Infantino at several events during the 2026 World Cup co-hosted by Canada, Mexico and the United States.

Unfortunately, the Commanders just spent $12 million to sign Stefon Diggs.This essentially removes the only suitor Aiyuk had in mind for his free agency, further worsening the career limbo hes in.Aiyuk cannot return to the NFL for at least the next few seasons as his contract remains on the 49ers Left Team list.The franchise has no reason to remove him from there after their public estrangement, while Aiyuk doesnt intend to make any sort of effort to fight for his reinstatement either.With the Commanders likely off the table now, Aiyuk might have to actively participate in the due process hes been avoiding to try to revive his NFL career.Read more:NFL coaches and executives share brutal Shedeur Sanders verdict amid Browns QB battleWhat Maxx Crosby said about Caleb Williams as Chicago Bears trade talk sparked back into lifeDonald Trumps son-in-law, Saudi Arabia PIF-led group buy Madden and FC publisher EA for $55 billion

Mohamed Salah scored just seven Premier League goals in his final season at Liverpool [Getty Images]Turkish club Trabzonspor are set to confirm the signing of Mohamed Salah as the Egypt captain was mobbed by fans on his arrival in Turkey. Hundreds of fans gathered outside Ataturk Airport in Istanbul on Wednesday as Salah emerged wearing Trabzonspor colours before engaging with the excited crowd. The 34-year-old forward left Liverpool at the end of last season after nine years on Merseyside, scoring 257 goals. It is unclear what Salah will earn at Trabzonspor, but as he is a free agent, the Super Lig club will have been able to commit more of their budget towards Salah's wages. Salah, who has scored 50 Champions League goals, will play European football with Trabzonspor next season after they finished third, eight points behind champions Galatasaray.If they fail to progress to the league phase of the Europa League via the play-offs, they will drop down to the Conference League. Salah became Liverpool's highest earner in their history when he signed a reported 400,000-a-week contract in April 2025.Trabzonspor will hold a signing ceremony for Salah at Papara Park on Thursday at 17:30 BST. The club has asked supporters to attend wearing the new season's shirts and "witness history" with Salah being presented as Trabzonspor's new number 10.Nicknamed the Black Sea Storm, Trabzonspor have won seven league titles, six of which came between 1976 and 1984.In 2022, they claimed their most recent league success, ending a 38-year wait.Based in the north-eastern city of Trabzon, they are one of only six teams to have won the Turkish Super Lig.Salah's signing will go down as the club's biggest as he joins former Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge and former Arsenal winger Nicolas Pepe in donning the claret and sky blue shirt.He helped Liverpool to win two Premier League titles, the Champions League, the Club World Cup, Uefa Super Cup, FA Cup and two EFL Cups.During his time in England, the Egyptian won the Premier League Golden Boot on four occasions and was named the Professional Footballers' Association player of the year three times - in 2018, 2022 and 2025.But despite scoring 29 goals and making 18 assists in Liverpool's 2024-25 title-winning season, Salah's minutes diminished the following campaign after a falling out with former Reds head coach Arne Slot. Salah fever takes over TurkeyEarlier on Wednesday, Salah was leading chants outside the airport in Istanbul after arriving in Turkey [Getty Images]Since announcing he would be leaving Liverpool a year before his two-year contract extension ended, the football world has been wondering where he would next be playing.After a successful World Cup campaign where Egypt reached the round of 16 for the first time before narrowly losing to Argentina, Salah was reported to be close to an agreement with a different Turkish club, Besiktas. With a deal breaking down reportedly because of finances, Salah reached an agreement instead with Trabzonspor. The Turkish side took to their social media on Tuesday night to tease the arrival of Salah with the Pyramids being shown on a video next to Papara Park.But, following swiftly was another post stating "negotiations had begun" between Salah and Trabzonspor before showing how Salah's Wednesday flight into Istanbul could be tracked."Trabzon, are you ready? See you very soon," he said in a video onboard a private jet and posted on social media. Trabzonpor's flight tracking came in handy as a huge amount of fans gathered outside the airport to welcome Salah, who was greeted like a movie star. There were yet more spectacular scenes when Salah arrived at Trabzon airport later on Wednesday as he led the fans in the club's traditional three-count chant.As one of sport's biggest global stars, this transfer for Trabzonspor is huge. Their current squad includes on-loan Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana, as well as a couple of Cape Verde's World Cup stars in Wagner Pina and Sidny Lopes Cabral.One of Turkish football's biggest signingsThere can be little doubt that Trabzonspor have completed one of the biggest transfers in Turkish football history.The country is no stranger to global stars: Roberto Carlos, Didier Drogba, Robin van Persie, Samuel Eto'o, Mesut Ozil and Wesley Sneijder have all played in the Super Lig.This season, supporters will be able to watch N'Golo Kante and Ederson at Fenerbahce; Victor Osimhen, Ilkay Gundogan and Leroy Sane at Galatasaray; and now Salah at Trabzonspor.A transfer of this magnitude however represents a significant departure for Trabzonspor who, while competing for the title, have focused on developing young players and identifying talent with resale potential.With the league increasingly dominated by Fenerbahce and Galatasaray, enthusiasm among Trabzonspor supporters had appeared to fade and Papara Park was often below capacity.The signing of Salah is an attempt to change that.His arrival should bring supporters back and significantly increase shirt sales. It could also broaden Trabzonspor's commercial appeal across the Middle East, while generating particular interest among the Arab community in Trabzon and visitors to the city.It is a bold change in strategy for Trabzonspor and Salah offers a renewed sense of excitement.Find all the latest football transfers on our dedicated page
