Remco Evenepoel could have signed with Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe

The cycling market is turned upside down as reported by the Belgian newspaper Het Laaste Nieuws, where it is claimed that Remco Evenepoel is about to close a deal with Red Bull-BORA-Hansgrohe despite having a contract in force with Soudal-QuickStep until the end of 2026.

According to the Belgian newspaper, INEOS Grenadiers, in need of a solid leader to complement the role of Carlos Rodríguez, Israel-PremierTech, and UAE-Team Emirates have also entered the bidding for his services. Of course, both Remco Evenepoel and Soudal-QuickStep have denied the signing.

In fact, this is information that must be taken with caution as his departure from Soudal-QuickStep has been news from time to time and a few years ago the cyclist himself had to come out to comment that he had a contract and the intention to fulfill it. In any case, we will have to stay tuned, as they say, where there's smoke...
