Sir Dave Brailsford has devoted his commitment to Manchester United by officially stepping down as team principal of the Ineos Grenadiers cycling team, according to reports. Sir Jim Ratcliffe's trusted confidant is set for a prominent role in the 71-year-old's investment at Old Trafford and has decided to place his complete focus on football. And, according to The Telegraph, Brailsford informed Ineos Grenadiers' riders and staff that he was walking away during their winter training camp in Majorca. The cycling team are said to have declined to comment on the decision, but Brailsford was removed as team principal on their website on Friday night. Despite his exit from the role, the 59-year-old will still be involved with the Ineos Grenadiers as part of his position as the petrochemical firm's director of sport.
