Transfers & Negotiations: The rumours and speculations about the hiring for the 2024 season in cycling are already beginning to sound. With the transfer market about to open after the end of the 2023 Tour de France, a new rumour has emerged and it has the AG2R Citroen Team as its protagonist and Mikel Landa and Nairo Quintana as the riders involved in it.

According to the Italian portal TuttoBiciWeb, the French team would be interested in signing the Spanish rider Mikel Landa, who would leave Bahrain Victorious after a four-year contract. Although news about the signings for 2024 cannot yet be officially revealed, Ag2r Citroen's interest in Landa seems to be gaining strength according to this European media. The portal mentions: "And Landa? For him, the path of the AG2R Citroen is getting hotter."

This possible contracting of Landa by AG2R Citroen would mean a missed opportunity for Nairo Quintana. For several months, it was also rumoured that the French team was interested in signing the Colombian cyclist, although this was denied at the time. However, there was still the possibility that Quintana was among the candidates to join the team. Now, with the possible signing of Landa, those opportunities seem to have vanished.

It remains to be seen if Quintana's new trip to the old continent these days will have better results than at the beginning of the season. The Colombian rider hopes to get good news about his sporting future and find a team that fits his goals and ambitions.

The cycling transfer market is always a scene full of speculation and surprises. Rumors can change quickly and deals can be made or fallen in a matter of days. Nairo Quintana's fans will be watching for any developments in his situation and hope that he can find a team where he can display all of his talent and continue to compete at the highest level.

As the season progresses and more details about the movements in the transfer market are revealed, we will remain attentive to any news related to the sporting future of Nairo Quintana and the other cyclists involved in these hiring rumours. Cycling always brings us surprises and emotions, both on the roads and in the team offices.
