Jasper De Buyst pens long-term extension with Lotto-Dstny through 2026

Lotto Dstny has extended the contract of Jasper De Buyst for two additional seasons. The 29-year-old Belgian still had a contract until the end of 2024, but this new agreement will see Jasper De Buyst defend the Lotto Dstny colours until at least the end of 2026.

"At the end of this new contract, I will have been part of the team for twelve consecutive seasons, an absolute first in the history of the team," highlights De Buyst in team's press release. "It says a lot about our cooperation these past years and it’s a sign of trust towards the future."

"A twelve-year period is of course long, but why change if you feel good somewhere? Moreover, the past season has shown that the team is going in the right direction, a place in the top ten of the UCI Team Ranking is a nice proof of that. I really want to contribute to this nice project in the coming years."

"Lotto Dstny has with Arnaud De Lie a huge talent on board and he already showed some really nice things. So I’m looking forward to pass on my experience and make Arnaud an even better rider. It will be a nice challenge to assist him in doing so," he concludes.
