Hopes of seeing Nairo Quintana in the 2023 Vuelta a España fade after another slammed door from a team that seemed to need a rider of his caliber. This news leaves the Colombian rider in a complicated situation, as rumors about his future continue.

Alexander Vinokurov, director of the Astana team, who has managed Quintana intermittently in recent years, said during the Tour de France that the possibility of signing Nairo is not in his plans due to the economic demands and the rider's age:
"We don't have a big budget. We are trying to sign a stage-racer, but we have never talked to Quintana, neither for the Vuelta a España nor for next season. We are looking for young talent." Despite this refusal, Nairo should not lose hope. The Vuelta a España 2023 could still be a scenario in which he could return, but it is certain that one possibility has faded. The situation leaves the Colombian cyclist with the need to continue trying to find a team that fits his expectations and needs.
Quintana, one of the most outstanding cyclists of his generation, has had numerous successes in his career, including Grand Tour victories and outstanding performances in the mountains. His experience and talent are valuable assets for any team looking to strengthen its roster.
As the season progresses and the Vuelta a España approaches, Nairo Quintana's fans are eagerly awaiting the next step in his career. Despite the obstacles encountered so far, there is no doubt that the Colombian cyclist continues to be a big name in the world of cycling and that his return to competition is awaited by many, despite the obvious difficulties.
