The decorated 35-year-old British cyclist has signed a multi-year contract at Israel Start-Up Nation

London — Britain’s most decorated road cyclist Chris Froome will leave Team Ineos at the end of the season, ending a long association with the British outfit with whom he won the Tour de France four times.

The 35-year-old Froome, who is one win away from equalling the Tour record of five victories, has signed a multi-year contract at Israel Start-Up Nation. Kenya-born Froome suffered a dreadful accident in 2019 in training and missed the Tour, which was won by Colombian teammate Egan Bernal. “It has been a phenomenal decade with the Team, we have achieved so much together and I will always treasure the memories,” Froome, who joined the team then known as Team Sky in 2010, said.The recruitment of Froome, who also won the Giro d’Italia in 2018, the 2017 Vuelta as well as the 2011 edition retrospectively, is a major coup for Israel Start-Up Nation.
