Four-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome has returned to outdoor training following reports he could leave his Ineos team this season.

The 34-year-old tweeted on Thursday he was training again on roads around his home in Monaco, where coronavirus lockdown restrictions have been eased.

Recent reports suggest Froome has been offered moves away from Ineos during this season. Team Ineos have been contacted for comment.

Froome’s current contract runs out at the end of this calendar year, and he has previously said he has yet to decide who he will ride for in 2021.

But Cycling News reported on Thursday the Briton is in discussion with two teams for a possible mid-season transfer - a rarity in cycling. (bbcsport)
