According Gazzetta's sources, INEOS Grenadier's climber Pavel Sivakov and BORA-hansgrohe's rouleur Nils Politt are linked to perhaps the richest WorldTour team, UAE Team Emirates.

Sivakov was brought to Brittish team as potential GC leader, but over the course of six seasons with the team, he failed to grow to the expectations, as we saw Sivakov on the ground in nearly every Grand Tour since his breakthrough Giro d'Italia 2019 where he finished 9th overall.

29-year old Politt has quite a similar fate to Sivakov. Once second at Paris-Roubaix, Politt was brought to BORA-hansgrohe to assist Peter Sagan at classics. After his departure from the team, Politt had free hand at classics where he gathered several solid results, but remained behind expectations as well. His future role in GC-oriented UAE however remains a bit unclear.
