Two-time world champion Fernando Alonso is set to return to Formula One with Renault in 2021, with a deal expected to be announced on Wednesday.
ESPN understands the Spaniard will replace McLaren-bound Daniel Ricciardo next year. The move will reunite Alonso with the Renault team he won championships with in 2005 and 2006.
Renault declined to comment when asked about the news. A report in Spain suggests Alonso has signed a two-year contract.
Alonso stepped away from F1 at the end of 2018 following a difficult four-year spell at McLaren without a victory or a podium.
