Former Fleche Wallonne winner Dylan Teuns strengthens Cofidis into next seasons

With Dylan Teuns, Cofidis gains a strong leader for classics as well as a rider capable of winning Grand Tour stages. The 32-year-old rider will bring a lot of experience for spring campaign, aiming to win a monument in Cofidis colours on a two-year deal.
"Cédric Vasseur was one of the first managers to take an interest in me this year," Teuns opens up in a press communication about what appealed to him at Cofidis, "he contacted me very early in the season. His project interested me and the great history of Cofidis was also a source of motivation."
As winner of La Fleche Wallonne in 2022, Teuns would love to become the next Belgian to win a monument in Cofidis jersey, following in footsteps of compatriot Franck Vandenbroucke. "Vandenbroucke is the last person to have won a monument with Cofidis (Liège-Bastogne-Liège, 1999) and I want to do everything so that we can aim for a podium in this type of race."
With many departures (Martin, Zingle) ahead of new season, there seems to be a slight concern about Cofidis roster depth, but that doesn't seem to be an issue according to Teuns: "I know that we will be able to present a very strong team to achieve this objective. I have always given my all. I know the pleasure you feel when you are in the lead, when you are well placed in the finish. These are sensations that I can't wait to experience again with Cofidis!"

- Pointless reporting. They are rivals, each tries their way to get their best result, with or without collaboration. As long as it’s all fair, why even report riders feelings about such stuff (yes I know, lack of other news). Anyone riding races will go through dozens of moments per race where they get emotional about the way someone else rides or takes advantage or doesn’t collaborate or more, it is natural, it is justified, it is NOT newsworthy!Mistermaumau17-11-2024
