'Too stupid for words' – Remco Evenepoel to Ineos rumours shut down by Patrick Lefevere after media storm
Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl boss Patrick Lefevere has shut down rumours linking world champion Remco Evenepoel to Ineos Grenadiers as “too stupid for words.” The cycling transfer rumour mill was sent spiralling on Wednesday when Lefevere said that Dave Brailsford had sent him a text, saying to let Ineos know if they wanted to sell Evenepoel. Ad This came on the back of reports saying that Ineos owner Jim Ratcliffe is desperate to win the Tour de France and sees Evenepoel as the key to recapturing the Grand Tour.
