The Spanish team that contacted Nairo Quintana but ended up not signing him

Uncertainty continues to surround the future of Colombian cyclist Nairo Quintana, who despite his difficult moment has received some offers. Although not having a team does not seem to be enough reason to take advantage of other opportunities, it was revealed that there was a Spanish team interested in signing him, but negotiations did not come to fruition.

Nairo's novel continues and it is unknown if there will be a happy ending in 2023 or if we will have to wait until 2024 to see him in action again. The possibility of him participating in the Vuelta a España has been mentioned, but so far there have only been refusals from the related teams.

Recently, both Astana Qazaqstan Team and Burgos BH denied any contact with Nairo's entourage, which has further limited his options. Burgos BH could have been a good destination, as it is a ProTeam team and standing out in the Spanish round would be attractive for both parties.

However, the sports director of Burgos BH denied having had talks and ruled out the possibility of signing the rider from Boyacá. The Astana team also made the same decision, eliminating Quintana from its list of possible signings for this or next season.

Despite the refusals received, it is known that there was interest and conversations with another Spanish team, although no agreement was reached. According to reports from Marca, "Caja Rural confirms that at the beginning of the process there was some contact when Quintana spoke with many teams, but nothing more".

The uncertainty about Nairo Quintana's future continues, and as time goes by, the available options are narrowing down. Although no agreement has been reached so far, there is hope that a satisfactory solution will soon be found for the talented Colombian cyclist.

Nairo's fans and cycling enthusiasts will keep an eye on future developments and hope that he finds a team that will give him the opportunity to compete at the highest level again. In the meantime, Nairo will remain focused on his preparation and will wait patiently for the right opportunity to show his worth on the roads.
