If I start discussing contracts here, I think I&#8217;ll go crazy,&#8221; Siexas told L&#8217;Equipe in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.domestiquecycling.com\/en\/news\/will-i-stay-wont-i-stay-right-now-theres-no-certainty-paul-seixas-again-delays-any-decision-to-stay-at-decathlon-cma-cgm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">interview in Singapore.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve taken this time to rest, and I figure that if I don&#8217;t think about it for now, things might be clearer when I do think about it again. We&#8217;ll see what I think about it in the future. But for now, I&#8217;m giving myself time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/paul-seixas-6ae4c8faacbdf.jpg@webp.webp\" class=\"w-auto h-auto\" alt=\"Paul Seixas\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Paul Seixas<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I sometimes find it a bit pointless&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Although Seixas is complimented by the storm of speculation surrounding his future, he does see the attention as &#8216;pointless&#8217;, noting that there&#8217;s no certainty about whether he&#8217;ll stay at Decathlon or go elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think it&#8217;s part of the sport. It&#8217;s normal that people talk about what&#8217;s next, it&#8217;s good, because it means that people are interested in me and want to know where I&#8217;m going. Personally, though, I sometimes find it a bit pointless. Will I stay? Won&#8217;t I stay? Right now, there&#8217;s no certainty.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sometimes I come across articles, things on social media, and it makes me laugh a little because there are things I only learn about online.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What will it take to tempt Seixas to commit his long-term future to a team? The Frenchman is all about the chemistry and vibe of wherever he lands as he bis to challenge for the Tour de France.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Seixas reveals what he wants for the future<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know&#8230; They could offer me the moon. It&#8217;s a very difficult question for me.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m looking for a feeling, a connection. I want to really feel in sync with this team, with people I like. I think that&#8217;s the most important thing, ultimately.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When the 20-year-old will make that decision remains uncertain. But he has declared that he&#8217;ll get back to official business in late November as he begins his pre-season training proper.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The real restart will be on November 20th, a few days after Saitama [November 15th], which gives me time to rest a bit and readjust. And then it\u2019s back to it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel in very good condition, I&#8217;m quite happy about that, both physically and mentally. It gives me confidence for the future. And that&#8217;s precisely why I&#8217;m not dwelling on my last season, because I&#8217;m confident about what lies ahead.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; After revealing last month that he&#8217;s not rushing to sign any contract on the table, Seixas seems&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":956141,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[569],"tags":[64,63,784,176987,176605,85],"class_list":["post-956140","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cycling","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-cycling","tag-decathlon-cma-cgm-team","tag-paul-seixas","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/956140","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=956140"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/956140\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/956141"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=956140"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=956140"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=956140"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
