With several high-profile sprinters potentially on the move and key contracts quietly being negotiated, teams are starting to shape their rosters and, as ever, a few dominoes look set to trigger the rest.<\/p>\n<p>In this newsletter, we\u2019ll look at the latest on the sprinters on the market, including Arnaud De Lie, Ethan Vernon, Kaden Groves, Juan Sebasti\u00e1n Molano, and Jordi Meeus. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also another team showing interest in GC rider\u00a0Jai Hindley; we clarify a few incorrect contract details; and deliver news on\u00a0Paula Blasi, who is attracting interest for 2028. <\/p>\n<p>Daniel <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/dnlbenson\" rel=\"nofollow\">Twitter<\/a> \ud83d\udfe2 \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/danielbensoncyclingstack\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a> \ud83d\udd34 \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/dnlbenson.bsky.social\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bluesky<\/a> \ud83d\udd35<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll start with Arnaud De Lie. It now sounds like his time with Lotto is almost certainly coming to an end. No deal has been signed, but a likely destination at this point is Tudor Pro Cycling Team. According to our sources, there are three good options, with the Swiss team, Alpecin and one other team still in the running. The Belgian will not be heading to Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe, and the third team remains unconfirmed at this moment, but there is a suggestion that it could be Groupama.<\/p>\n<p>From what we can gather, Tudor is offering a three-year-plus deal for the Belgian sprinter, and the rider sees them as a genuine possibility. \u201cThe chance is quite big that he won\u2019t stay with Lotto,\u201d one source told me.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Several teams want to sign Molano as a lead-out rider. \ud83d\udcf8 @SWpix.
