Nairo Quintana continues to dream of return: "I'm as fine as if I were racing, I like to train and get up early"

In recent weeks, there has been speculation about possible options for Quintana's future, with teams such as Movistar, Cofidis and AG2R all mentioning an interest in his services. These rumors have generated great excitement in the cycling world, both in Europe and Colombia.
However, it was Nairo Quintana himself who decided to confirm some exciting news regarding his return to competition. In an interview with 'DirecTV Sports', Quintana expressed his current form and his willingness to face new challenges on the road. "I'm very well physically, I think I'm as fine as if I were racing tomorrow. I like to train and get up early," said the Colombian cyclist, making it clear that he is in optimal conditions to return to the maximum demands of professional cycling.
Nairo Quintana has continued to train steadily and is preparing to finalize his deal with a new team once the current WorldTour season ends. Although his destination has not yet been confirmed, speculation and rumors suggest that he could be a luxury reinforcement for one of the most prominent teams in world cycling.
For now, the cyclist from Boyacá continues to work hard on his training in Colombia and Europe. The rider's entourage has leaked that he hopes to get a contract for next year in November;
As of today we know that all the teams linked to the MPCC movement (many French) do not want him. It doesn't seem easy for him to find a WorldTour team and we assume that his options to race in Europe in 2024 are to lower his salary and end up in a lower category squad. It was already leaked that one of the reasons for his stop this year is that he wanted to keep getting paid the same. The other, that he didn't want to be anyone's gregario. It is impossible for him to find a team if his entourage does not help him to convince him to lower his demands.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
