British and US media have reported that Dave Brailsford is due to step back from his involvement in the Manchester United Football Club, with a corresponding increase in his work as Director of Sport at Ineos and a potential return to a more prominent role in the Ineos Grenadiers cycling team on the cards.
Brailsford was widely considered to be the mastermind of British Cycling and Team Sky's success in the past decade. However, he stepped down as Ineos Grenadiers Team Principal and has been heavily involved in the overhaul of the football team when a 25% minority share of Manchester United was bought by Ineos owner Jim Ratcliffe, he stepped down in 2023.
