Froome 'not crazy' to eye 2025 Tour

Four-time Tour de France champion Chris Froome has said that he dreams of competing in the world's greatest cycling race once more before calling time on his glittering career.

The British rider, who will be at the Tour de France Singapore Criterium from Nov 9 to 10 and turn 40 next May, has one year left on his contract with the Israel-Premier Tech team.

"It's not crazy to think that I can return to the Tour," Froome, who won the race in 2013, 2015, 2016 and 2017, said in an interview with Spanish daily Marca on Nov 5.

"I keep dreaming about it. I still don't know what my schedule will be for next year. We will see it in the next training camp in 2025. But my challenge is to try to run in a big one again."

Froome, who has won a total of seven Grand Tours, has struggled to get back to anywhere near his best form since suffering serious injuries in a horrific high-speed crash during training for the Criterium du Dauphine in 2019.
