Every year around this time, rumors about Remco Evenepoel changing teams resurface, with the added twist that, in addition to the usual interest from INEOS Grenadiers, a new possible destination in the Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe team is now being considered. In any case, the Belgian has a contract with Soudal-QuickStep until the end of 2026 and has always stated that his intention is to respect that contract.

Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe joins the race for Remco Evenepoel

Remco Evenepoel could leave Soudal-QuickStep at the end of the season. As is often said on social media: "it doesn't matter when you read this," and the topic of the Belgian cyclist's transfer to a higher-level team than his current one has been recurring since a couple of years ago when INEOS Grenadiers began showing interest in acquiring his services.

However, just when it seemed like the matter was settled due to Remco Evenepoel's determination to see out his contract, which expires at the end of next season, speculations are now gaining strength again with the entry of Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe into the mix.

One of the main arguments for the German team being Remco Evenepoel's next destination is that Specialized is also the sponsor of Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe, with the cyclist being one of the brand's ambassadors from Morgan Hill, so he could maintain his connection with the Americans without any issues.

Meanwhile, INEOS Grenadiers continues to maintain its aspiration to sign Remco Evenepoel thanks to the financial support provided by TotalEnergies' sponsorship of the team.

Nevertheless, everyone is aware, as Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe director Ralph Denk made clear, that Remco Evenepoel has a valid contract: "The situation is clear amidst the transfer market rumors, but he has a contract and I am a big fan of Remco to be honest, but there is a contract and it will be respected."

As for Remco Evenepoel, when asked about a possible team change in the lead-up to the Tour de France, he dodged the question: "It's the first I've heard of it. It surprises me a bit. I don't know what story you're referring to."
