Transfers and rumours

[Pross]

It does make me wonder if Gee could argue some kind of reputational damage being behind wanting a contract release.

Soudal Quick-Step
Sep Vanmarcke, Niki Terpstra and Eliot Lietaer join as sports directors, while Tim Declercq, Michel Geerinck and Dimitri Peyskens come on board as coaches.

One G leaves, so another Gee must arrive. Balance must be maintained.

I'd assumed that the governing law for IPT contracts is that of Israel which isn't going to look kindly on that argument although potentially it's standard for all WT contracts to be subject to Swiss law.

Either way, were I advising Gee, I might suggest that he could ensure a sacking by speaking out about what was happening in Gaza.

Have to say he has put a few pounds on.

Mathias Norsgaard makes the same Movistar -> Lidl-Trek move his sister Emma made last year.

"This feels like a step up for me. Ultimately, my job is to be a support rider, and I have been looking for the great captain, who I could give everything for. In Mads, I have found exactly that. I want to excel in my job, and I have one big dream: to help Mads win a monument."

I like Godon and they get the French national Champ's jersey but that seems a bit of an odd signing. .

Their strategy in the last 4 or 5 years has felt weird but the focus seems to have been on youngsters with potential. I don't really see where Godon fits in but then don't really know much about him. Maybe they looked at his Wiki page that appears to show he won all 3 GTs every year from 2019 to 2023.

It's a win win....keeps Tudor happy and a room mate for Axel Laurance.
