Hey Subscribers,

As ever, I could split all these stories into shorter emails, but I think the best way to start the day is with the maximum amount of transfer news, all in one easy digest.

Coming up today, we have:

  • More big moves from Lidl-Trek

  • A huge update on sprinters

  • Who is still out of contract

  • Updates on Ineos, Red Bull, Lotto and Movistar

We’ll start with the sprinters, then work our way through a few loose ends before analysing what might play out at Lidl-Trek over the coming weeks with links to Felix Gall and several other major targets, including Jordan Jegat.

Sprinters first, and it’s been a game of musical chairs over the last few months. Most of the fastmen have seats for next year, but a few riders are still looking for new teams.

We’ll start with Juan Sebastián Molano because the latest intel is that he’s agreed to join Lotto Intermarché on a two-year deal from UAE Team Emirates-XRG. Some background: he was linked with a move away last year, despite still having one year left on his existing deal. UAE decided to keep him after strong interest from Jayco AlUla, and now he’s going to the Belgian/French team to replace Arnaud De Lie, who we know is going to Tudor Pro Cycling on a three-year deal.

The Belgian will most likely link up with Kaden Groves after the Swiss team went big on the transfer market.
