It would be funny for some reasons, unfunny for others.

I don't see it mainly because I doubt UAE wanna get someone that gets in the way of Almeida and Del Toro.
Del Toro is young. There is a possibility he might race the Tour next year. Just like Ayuso last year.
Roglic doing Giro-Vuelta. Sole leadership in the Vuelta and co leadership in the Giro.

So hypothetically, if not RBH what would be the ideal team for Rogla going further. I assume three year deal and GC orientated team would make sense. UAE, Visma and RBH, currently being the top three teams in stage racing in terms of expected results in a GT race hence likely out of the picture. Who can challenge and beat them with Rogla? SOQ?

INEOS I guess, assuming Ayuso goes to LIDL-Trek. Or IPT now that Gee is gone and probably Froome.

If you actually read the article to the end, what it says in the gist of it is several teams wouldn't mind if Rogla would be prepared to switch teams, as they are interested in signing him. They are even prepared to wait a bit, to postpone other signings, just in case Rogla decides to leave RBH.

To be honest i could have told you that.
What's with the almost correct grammar? Breaking the fourth wall, are we?

I'd love to see him in Lidl (if Ayuso is not going there of course). But I don't really believe he's leaving.

INEOS I guess, assuming Ayuso goes to LIDL-Trek. Or IPT now that Gee is gone and probably Froome.

So Lidl-Trek, Ineos and Israel – Premier Tech.

With Lidl-Trek i assume there would be no fully committed GT team for now and would need to share it with sprinters, Ineos is i guess a team that Rogla eventually will sign for, with Israel – Premier Tech i assume Rogla would need to take on some politics and to contribute to peacemaking, worthy goal.

We'll see.

A pun at journalists.

And we're on brand again with sheer nonsense.

Note to mods: not a slight at the poster but a neutral assessment of the sentence which doesn't make any sense.

I mean more structure, less substance, next time just ask. Meaning that although journalists in this day and age try to keep it punctual to a point, often they fail at providing valuable content. For example saying Rogla is leaving RBH in the title, then in first part of the article saying teams are interested in signing Rogla and then concluding by admitting they have no real prof to back that up. Grammatically it is correct, though.

Stop signing contract extensions when you want to leave Primoz!!!!!!

Rogla will be fine.

I think he stays. I'm more interested to see where he targets next year. He may want a fifth Vuelta, and I think you probably let him help Lipowitz/Remco for the Giro IMO.

TDU (More hope than think)
Tirreno
Itzulia
Liege
Giro
TdS
Poland
Vuelta
Lombardia

He's fine on RB for two more years but they may want him to take a pay cut. In that case he should go where the pay is best. Wouldn't mind Ineos, he can lead any GT for them. I'm not quite ready for stage hunter Rogla yet.

Yeah, what we know is that Rogla is staying leaving, all citing the original article from yesterday. Consistent, i guess, with expected reporting for the 2026 season, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Luckily Rogla is good with the media.

Movistar is a stage racing GC orientated team that needs a leader, considering Mas and uncertainty in regards to health. Rogla is half Spaniard.
