Chris Froome to leave Team Ineos after 10 years and seven Grand Tour wins

Froome will leave the team when his contract expires at the end of this season.

CHRIS FROOME WILL leave Team Ineos at the end of the season, bringing an end to his decade-long association with the Dave Brailsford cycling team formerly known as Team Sky.

The seven-time Grand Tour winner has been strongly linked with a move to the Israel Start-Up Nation team after seeing his leadership role within Ineos challenged by the emergence of both Geraint Thomas and Egan Bernal, who have won the past two editions of the Tour de France.

Brailsford said: “Chris’s current contract comes to an end in December and we have taken the decision now not to renew it.

“We are making this announcement earlier than would usually be the case to put an end to recent speculation and allow the team to focus on the season ahead.”

    Nothing too spectacular about it, but Miller is a quality technically gifted player, pity he didn’t stay in cork for what could be a special year

    It’s nice to see him still make a living out of football

    Liam Miller never done too much while playing for Cork City.
    I always got the impression that he had the attitude that he was too good to be playing for City.
    Glad to see the back of him.

    He had a good season at Sunderland under Roy keane. The start was a disaster and it looked like Sunderland would get relegated. Then keano arrived and sensationally they won the league. What a season that was. They really did come back from the brink.

    If he had have stayed at Celtic for a year or two develop a bit more he could have been real quality. Cant blame him for moving when he did though.

    I’m sorry but Miller added noting to the City team, always passed sideways or backwards and never looked to get forward, was not sorry to see him leave
