Where to for these guys?

Are we going to see any major signings from Etixx? They've lost Uran, Kwiat and now Cav. The only big name they've signes is D.Martin

They have made some other quality signings like Gaviria and Jungels.

I think I've read they are going to have lesser budget for 2016, so I guess they're not going to sign as big names as those, who left.

That's covering a shotgun hole with dressings.

If these are true then for the love of god, surely Tinkoff must make an offer for Oss. Ideal helper for Sagan on the bike, and they seem to get on pretty well off the bike too, as ex Liquigas teammates.

They are definitely on good terms. Oss pretty much openly led him out when he was going for bonus seconds in a race this year. It may have been the Tour of California.

Really? A guy who has won two monuments in the last three years (and should have won a third), a guy who is probably the most promising young sprint talent in the world and a guy who is a very promising all rounder? Would I prefer Cavendish and co on a team I was running next year, well yes, but only if budget isn't an issue. If the budget is being reduced, that's pretty good transfer manouevering.

With IAM not really signing anyone to replace Chavanel (and the money his contract frees up) it makes me wonder if Van Avermaet will go there. There is the obvious connection with Verbrugghe being his brother-in-law.

Can't really find any reports on his contract status

Well, yeah, I totally forgot about Dan Martin.

I love this theory and want it to come true.

 

[TMP402]

Pozzato rumoured to FDJ.

 

[TMP402]

Kenny Dehaes confirmed to Wanty, Daniele Ratto confirmed to Androni.

 

[RedheadDane]

Alexander Kamp joins CULT

Nice signing. Probably the best place Kamp could go

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Matej Mohoric to LAMPRE

 

[Brullnux]

Re:

I thought he joined Saxo

 

[thehook]

Oss to Tinkov. Would be a really nice signing. Oss was driving an Ice Cream truck this classics season. All he was serving was PAIN SHAKES!

Oss replacing Breschel would be a great swap.

 

[KGB]

Yes ,Sagan needs for new classic season only Oss .Please Oleg buy him!!Not cheap with his form but that's will be the best support for Sagan.

 

[JRanton]

Sky Sports are reporting that Cavendish will sign with Team Dimension Data on Tuesday (today for me now). Renshaw and Eisel will join him.

 

[nobilis]

La Pomme - Marseille to become Pro COnti in 2016 and to sign Dani Diaz.

http://www.biciciclismo.com/es/la-p...nental-en-2016-y-ficha-a-dani-diaz-29-09-2015

They've been really performing at ProConti level for many seasons and having a ProConti calendat so it was about time to step-up.

 

[classicomano]

Daniel Diaz, the man who goes from superhuman in San Luis, to pack fodder in the rest of the season in shitty south american races. What a great signing.

 

[Stilletto]

Bora Twitter has announced the signing of Rudiger Selig from Katusha

 

[Stilletto]

Jasper de Buyst extends 2 more years with Lotto - Soudal

 

[Bakkie]

Didn't know the good topic for this, therefore here again: Tomorrow there is an important press conference from Etixx Quickstep about the future of the team
at 11:00u. I think: news about a new sponsor and WHR attack Tony Martin..

Or maybe something else? New big signing?

Source: Jeroen Vanbelleghem: "Morgen om 11u belangrijke persconferentie @Etixx_QuickStep over toekomst ploeg. Mijn gok? Werelduurrecord poging T. Martin & nieuwe sponsor."

 

[Wallenquist]

MTN just confirmed Cav, Eisel and Renshaw.
