After he won the u23 WC TT he did get an offer from UAE, but he chose to prolong with Uno-X until 2026 instead. In Norwegian media he did say that one of the reasons was that he felt UAE would’ve been morally wrong.I'm kinda surprised that no bigger team tried to buy him out of his contract. .
Definitively something he need to work on and this was one of the things that costed him a lot in this years Roubaix I think. For example into Arenberg with this dumb double corner he lost a lot and basically every time there were gaps in the group he was on the wrong side and wasted quite a bit of energy to get back on many occasions.What really speaks against anyone paying a lot to buy him out is his positioning skills. He simply prefers to sit right at the back at all times which is a big disadvantage for him since it's a big effort to move to the front late in races to do the job if you're not already dropped because the peloton split.
