I thought she could be moving on, but there would of course be a limit to the amount of teams that would be interested in supporting her in multiple disciplines.

SD Worx sponsors a gravel racer, that used to be a soigneur for Lidl Trek women's team, that spends a great amount of her time racing and training in the US.

Yeah, Geerike Schreurs is quite an interesting case of someone who retired early, but stayed in contact with the sport and now has fallen in love with a different kind of racing.

Kamiel Bonneu confirmed to join Wanty for next season.

EDIT: It seems Calmejane is staying at Wanty (or at least he expresses his intention to do so), according to an interview read on DirectVelo

Aular rumoured to join Movistar

 

[Squire]

Im not sure its a done deal also heard Bora maybe. But nevertheless he is just a similar better version of Hirschi.
Great add for whoever of those teams get him. Impressed during the Giro, very strong and likely will just get stronger.

Bombshell! Jhonatan Narváez set leave INEOS Grenadiers and join Tadej Pogacar at UAE Team Emirates

The cycling market is red hot and at the Giro d'Italia, teams and agents are having active conversations regarding some of the best riders in the world. Jhonatan Narváez is set to leave INEOS Grenadie...

That website ...

"Bombshell!" The Narvaez/UAE connection has been an open secret for like half the season already.

Cyclinguptodate is the worst website in the cycling space, just stealing content of everyone else and clickbaiting it, but for some reason there's certain posters here that have been promoting this site, linking it 10 times a day.

Yes its a old one aswell but recently he has also been linked to Bora.
Curious where he might end up of the two. New money vs dirty money: fight.

But Arensman re-signed with Ineos so that rumour/source might be just ***.

I unironically think it should be a forum rule not to link to Cyclinguptodate.

If we were a media outlet, sure, we shouldn't use that site as a source but prohibiting links to articles on there on a cycling forum seems ridiculous.

 

[Skalman]

Any info on Where Alaphilppe will end up?

It is entirely normal for football forums to ban linking to *** sources, don't see why it wouldn't be possible on here.

Feltet.dk did a really good rumours overview. It's in Danish, but that doesn't really matter in terms of names.

Stor oversigt: De varmeste transferrygter

Fra den 1. august vil transfers til 2025-sæsonen begynde at rulle ind

www.feltet.dk

And @Skalman, I'm afraid that doesn't answer your question...

Julian Alaphilippe (Soudal - Quick-Step):

-> Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team (Wielerflits. Juli)

-> Tudor Pro Cycling (La Gazzetta dello Sport. Maj)

-> TotalEnergies (Ouest France. April)

Because the moderators are busy enough as it is.

I didn't notice that yet. Thanks! Im not really using feltet these days anymore since Axelgaard transferred, so I kinda forgot they existed..

Evenepoel to Red Bull has been rumoured. But Van Aert to Quickstep?!? Haven't heard that one before.

Nice. Would love to see Van Aert move to QS.

Can't see it happen, but would be great for Remco and Van Aert

Why can't you see it happening?

Why would Visma let Van Aert go? And the money to buy Remco out will be nuts.

Remo would make sense for Red Bull. They have said they won't buy a top rider out of contract, but you can tell a lot. It just wouldn't make sense for Soudal. Their best rider. They now have a strong team for GC. And then they should let him go? Who should they buy for the money? What would be the advantage for WvA to switch. Soudal also wants to be a GC team. Or should he go to GC? Doubtful. Doesn't make much sense to me.
The sources mentioned don't give any concrete information either. I haven't found any other sources. So for me it's just an article for attention without any real news content.

WVA in Soudal would make a lot of sense.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Wout needs out of Jumbo. QS would be perfect!

Corrected: Visma needs to ditch Van Aert.
