Cycling team Bahrain Victorious have confirmed in a statement that police investigators searched the homes of some of the riders and staff before they left for the 2022 Tour de France.

The Slovenian was unsurprisingly on Monday named in the UAE Team Emirates line-up for the race, which gets underway in Copenhagen on Friday. Switzerland's Marc Hirschi was a notable omission, but Polish climber Rafal Majka, Mikkel Bjerg, Brandon McNulty and Vegard Stake Laengen all made the cut. New Zealander George Bennett and Spain's Marc Soler, both signed in the off-season, are in the team, as is Italian sprinter Matteo Trentin. "We've worked very hard all year as a team to prepare for this," said the 23-year-old Pogacar. "So far this year has been positive for the team and we hope to continue this momentum." Pogacar is a strong favourite for the Tour after another impressive season which has seen him win the one-day Strade Bianche and two stage races. Meanwhile, Trek-Segafredo named former world champion Mads Pedersen as their team leader on Monday. Kazakh Alexey Lutsenko, who finished seventh last year, will be the main man for Astana, who will also have four Italian riders on the start line in Denmark.

Qatar fell to a shock 1-0 defeat to Irish League champions Linfield as they continue their preparations for hosting this winter’s World Cup. The hosts fielded seven players who drew 0-0 with Slovenia in March, but they were left frustrated by the Belfast side in Marbella, with striker Chris McKee netting a first-half winner.
