Mark Cavendish has confirmed that he is looking to leave Team Sky – less than a year after joining the British squad.
Speaking at a Tour of Britain press conference on Sunday Cavendish revealed that he is keen to arrange a meeting with Team Sky’s general manager Dave Brailsford.
The 27-year-old Laxey man admits he wants to leave the team for another which will put his priorities first.
He says staying with Team Sky would restrict him as a professional cyclist as he has ambition to win as many tour stages as possible – something he doesn’t feel achievable in the current set up.
Cavendish, who still has two and a half years on his contract, said he is hopeful the situation can be resolved as amicably as possible.
