Egan Bernal keeps his sports future in an unknown that, for now, seems to have no resolution date. After his serious accident, the Ineos team has not had a good season. The results in the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France have been quite far from what was expected.

Under this scenario, the strategy of the British squad seems to be be reinforced with young promises of world cycling. Which could sow doubts about Bernal’s future.

And Egan?

In days gone by, it was Leo Hayterthe winner of the U-23 Giro d’Italia, who was announced as a new member of their ranks.

Rod Ellingworth, deputy team manager, said: “Leo is one of those highly talented young cyclists who already impresses with his performance, like in the Giro Sub23. I have a lot to gain from seeing how he evolves with us ”.

Leo is the brother of Ethan, 23 years old and who has been part of Ineos since 2018.
