The signing of Alejandro Valverde as the Spanish cycling team coach would be done

At the end of 2024, all rumors pointed to Alejandro Valverde as the next national cycling team coach, but since then there has only been silence and negotiations between both parties seemed broken. None of that. According to the newspaper El País, the RFEC and Alejandro Valverde would already have an agreement for the Murcian to lead the Spanish cycling team until 2028.

Alejandro Valverde will be the national cycling team coach for the next four years

Just a few hours ago, Alejandro Valverde unveiled his new brand, “Beyond the summit”. An image with which he wants to be associated from now on and that could be another move in the three-way negotiation that has been brewing for months.

The former world champion in 2018 has always shown willingness and eagerness to lead the Spanish cycling team, but first he had to figure out how to fit this new position with his role as ambassador for the Movistar team. With the approval of both parties, the new brand presented by Valverde seems like a good option for the image of the new coach to be associated with a personal brand without commercial interests.
