Bahrain - Victorious back on the radar as Nairo Quintana looks to prolong his stay in Europe

We are already in the middle of April and Nairo Quintana still has no team. The Colombian climber has been rumored by half of the international peloton, but despite all the rumors, he continues to train without an official jersey. For some days now he has been in Europe, more specifically in Andorra, where he is based, and in the surrounding area.

Despite the time that has passed since he was dropped by Arkéa-Samsic and was left without a signed renewal after testing positive for tramadol in the last Tour de France, Nairoman remains confident that he will be able to find a team.

"I haven't cheated, I have my head held high. We were in the nationals, I wanted to win, that's the reality. I'm in a good level, we continue forward, with the hope of having a bib for important races and the day that is achieved will be a great victory, not only for Nairo but for Latin America and Colombia," he said recently.

According to the colleagues of Antena 2, one of the teams that could have set their eyes on Nairo Quintana is the Bahrain Victorius of Mikel Landa and Pello Bilbao. According to the Colombian publication, Nairo and Mikel have a good relationship since they coincided in Movistar Team and also there he would coincide with his compatriot Santiago Buitrago. For now, only rumors, we will see if any of them materialize in the coming weeks.
