Remco Evenepoel is one of the most talked about riders in the world at the moment. Winning the individual time-trial at the Glasgow World Championships he couldn't to prove why. But it's off-the-bike rumours of his future that continue to swirl.
Who will the Belgian be riding for in 2024 is a big question that is yet to be definitively answered. Legendary Spanish former Grand Tour winner Alberto Contador however may have revealed some insider knowledge following Evenepoel's World Championship victory.
“It is an open secret that Evenepoel will drive for Ineos next year. And he will also bring some current teammates with him,” said Contador in a bombshell of a statement on Eurosport. In recent weeks Soudal - Quick-Step team boss Patrick Lefevere and Evenepoel's father have been verbally sparring via the media other the reigning Vuelta a Espana champion's future and it may seem Lefevere is losing the battle to keep his star rider.
Calma, Belgium, Calma! 😎 #GlasgowScotland2023
