Chris Froome is returning to the Emirates to participate in this year's UAE tour.
The Multiple Grand Tour winner will be part of the race taking place next month, from February 23 to 29.
Froome announced that he will be at the start of the UAE Tour's second edition, after he had been kept out of competition following a crash last June.
The rider's name has been added to the top class roster of cyclists, which includes Alejandro Valverde, Rohan Dennis and Tadej Pogačar.
