That is the second in the Giro sub 23.

I wonder where Andres Camilo Ardila is going next year.

Post note: I see now from another poster that he might be going to Astana.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Benoot joins Sunweb and NOT Ineos.

Wondering who will end up at Ineos now as many riders are rumoured to be leaving. Only Carapaz seems majorly linked to join.

Has your uncle, the Team Sky doctor turned BMC mechanic, not got any inside info?

 

[Lexman]

Bennoot -> Sunweb confirmed.
Deceuninck Quikckstep is gonna negociated soon with Mauri Vansevenant. 6 others teams also interested.

any link for this (Vansevenant)? thank you

He already signed with UAE, I posted it some time ago.

Thomas Bay just mentioned Gilbert to Lotto. Is that official...

Are you talking about Andres Camilo?
I did a search in the forum and I missed it. I guess I have to get better at it.

Meerdere ploegen azen op klimbelofte Mauri Vansevenant

Is Mauri Vansevenant op weg naar Deceuninck-Quick-Step? De 20-jarige klimbelofte - zoon van voormalig prof Wim Vansevenant - zit binnenkort om de tafel met Patrick Lefevere, de teammanager van Deceuninck-Quick-Step. De winnaar van de Giro Valle d'Aosta kan echter kiezen uit meerdere ploegen, zo laat

Ploegen staan met profcontract in de rij voor klimtalent Mauri Vansevenant: “Straks zitten we samen met Patrick Lefevere”

Morgen begint de Ronde van de Toekomst en een van de favorieten is een Belg. Mauri Vansevenant (20) is de zoon van oud-prof Wim Vansevenant (47) en een toptalent bergop. Voorlopig is hij nog student elektromechanica en zelfverklaard “konterboer”, maar halverwege volgend jaar wil hij voltijds...

Yes, Ardila has signed a long term contract with UAE for 4 years.

Matxin was already talking to him at the U23 Giro and tried to help the team to find a solution for his knee pain.

Interesting news from the transfer market today.
I guess some room has opened at Astana.

Equally intriguing at the north, too.

 

[Koronin]

Very happy to see Benoot to Sunweb and not Ineos.

Good signings by Movistar.

It seems Rubio to Movistar is likely (possibly already signed), however, Movistar hasn't said anything official on that one yet.

 

[Escarabajo]

Einer Rubio is confirming it here. That means he might have already signed.

Agree. Sounds like he's likely already signed. Guess at this point we're just waiting for Movistar to make it official.

Dayer Quintana confirms he will be joining his brother next year at Arkea, along with Winner Ancona and Diego Rosa

Dayer Quintana hopes to make mark in Utah, ready to race with Nairo in 2020

Often overshadowed by his older brother, Dayer looks forward to racing alongside Nairo in 2020.

Per Matt Rendell, Movistar need to have at least two Colombians on their roster for sponsor reasons. Rubio has been linked for a while, but it seems they are after Juan Diego Alba too. Rendell also says he isn't sure if Betancur stays

Almeida to Deceuninck Quick-Step

 

[F_Cance]

not good

 

[Mayomaniac]

Almeida to Deceuninck Quick-Step

Not a huge surprise, they were supposed to sign him last year, but then the whole Remco situation happened and they had him turn pro right from the start and Almeida stayed with his team for one more year.

 

[Salvarani]

Remco, Knox and Almeida... that is a pretty talented trio

No new signings confirmed so far by EF in August but on The Cycling News Podcast Vaughters said he was looking on the transfer market this year for:

• an experienced rider who could protect guys like Martinez and Higuita on the crosswinds etc.
• a young, undervalued sprinter with some room for development

Two riders that have been linked with the team in rumours are Cort and Halvorsen and they could fit the first and second role respectively quite well IMO. Although on second thought I'm not so sure about Cort, he might want to be much more than that.

Vaughters also confirmed he was interested in Sutterlin for the first role but now we know he joined Sunweb.

Interestingly, he only secured Uran after TdF in 2015 so it shows not all of the big names secure their contract long in advance before the transfer window opens in the 1st of August.

Contract year. He was leaving Quickstep. Might have just waited after the Tour to decide where he was going.

Campenaerts to Dimension Data, it looks like. Not yet a done deal, but very close.

Campenaerts verlaat Lotto: bijna rond met Dimension Data

Victor Campenaerts (28) rijdt volgend jaar zo goed als zeker voor Team Dimension Data, straks Team NTT. De Kristallen Fiets 2018 en werelduurrecordhouder neemt afscheid van Lotto-Soudal, de ploeg waar hij zijn definitieve doorbraak forceerde. In 2020 wordt de olympische tijdrit in Tokio hét...

[greenedge]

Carapaz
Campenaerts
Chaves
Meintjes
Kamna
Pidcock

For Chaves it might depend on how well he rides at the Vuelta, and if he goes well he might want a guaranteed leadership position. Like Elissonde, who is a great climber, he might be too small for the team in the TDF to utilise in two ways, he prefers attacking and secondly he won't contribute in a TTT. Meintjes has proven to be a bit unreliable as of late, so even for Ineos it might be a risk.

Ineos will still have a very scary squad for next year's TDF, i'd guess Sivakov would fill the role of Poels if he leaves, Van Baarle and Rowe will probably be there and then Moscon+ Kwiatowski. I'd assume at least 2 out of Thomas, Froome and Bernal will show, which allows for Castojevo or Poels if they don't leave, or the option of Carapaz as well to round out the squad.
