Belgian directeur sportif Dirk Demol will leave his position at Quick Step and re-unite with old colleague Johan Bruyneel at Astana, according to the Belga news agency. Demol, the 1988 Paris-Roubaix winner, previously worked with Bruyneel at US Postal Service and then Discovery Channel before moving to Quick Step after Discovery disbanded in August 2007. The move brings an end to Demol's association with Tour of Flanders winner Stijn Devolder, who is likely to remain with Quick Step next season.
