Georg Zimmermann extends his contract at Intermarché - Wanty through 2026, aiming to win a Tour de France stage

Georg Zimmermann will also compete for Intermarché - Wanty in 2025 and 2026. The 26-year-old German has extended his expiring contract with the Belgian team by two years.

"Joining Intermarché - Wanty in 2021 has been the best choice for my career. This structure invests a lot in the development of young riders. The professional way of working is qualitative in all areas, but if I have to mention the factors that played the most important role in my development, I would say the coaching and the annual plans, which enable us to prepare for our goals in the best possible way," Zimmermann said in press release.

"This allowed me to achieve my first World Tour victory in the Critérium du Dauphiné and experience other unforgettable moments. Performances like these changed my status in the peloton, but never inspired me to change environment. I feel happy within Intermarché-Wanty, I know that in this team I can exploit my potential and keep showing the best of myself in the coming years."

Head coach Aike Visebeek adds: "At Intermarché - Wanty he will have the opportunity to use his big engine in shorter stage races and classics tailored to his needs, as well as in a freebooting role in grand tours. He has the capabilities to win a stage. Last year he came close in the Tour de France. That remains our ambition."
