Spain’s Joaquim Rodriguez will use his experience of podium finishes at last year’s Giro d’Italia and Tour of Spain to spearhead Katusha’s Tour de France campaign.
“We have good climbers around him,” said team boss Valerio Piva.
Rodriguez, 34, took part in the Tour de Fance for the only time in 2010 when he finished seventh overall after claiming a stage win.
He was second in the Giro in 2012 and third in the Tour of Spain.
