In a recent podcast for Hungarian branch of Eurosport, Attila Valter had a chance to share his view of the Cian Uijtdebroeks incident that has been polarizing the cycling community since December of last year, after spending some time with the young Belgian during Visma | Lease a Bike altitude camp.
"My roommate here was Cian Uijtdebroeks, but he went home yesterday. He told me, that Bora wanted to sign him until at least 2025 as soon as possible, but he didn’t want. He told them, that he will still leave them one day," Valter begins to tell Uijtdebroeks' story.
"And that was the moment when he realized, that he wants to leave the Bora team immediately after the 2023 season because he was afraid, that the Bora people might be angry with him and they would not let him ride any GrandTour in this season because of that."
"He told me, that he didn’t feel well in the Bora team, but he said that the WhatsApp group and these strange bullying rumors were not in Bora and he doesn’t understand what journalists were talking about," he confirms. "Now that we have been working for some time with him, nobody could have a bad word about him, because he is a quiet and polite person and what I can see that can change in 1-2 years is that he can be really ambitious."
