Nine years after he retired as a Trek rider, former top climber Fränk Schleck has rejoined Lidl-Trek to bolster the sports directors group for their women's team, working under Ina-Yoko Teutenberg.
Schleck, 45, joined Leopard Trek in 2011 and saw out the final years of his career on the Luxembourgish and then US-registered team, during which time he finished third at the Tour de France behind his younger brother Andy and Cadel Evans.
