Despite Lopez's contract being valid for one more season, the team decided to extend it, and Lopez is grateful to the team for doing so. "By extending my contract early, Luca and the team really show that they have faith in me and that they believe in me like I believe in myself. That's a very special feeling and I really want to show that I'm worth it in the next three years," López said.

General Manager Luca Guercilena believes in the Spaniard's potential. "Of course in 2022 he wore the Maglia Rosa for ten days, finished tenth in that Giro d'Italia and took home the jersey of best young rider. His performance confirmed what we as a team had already discussed: that we want to invest further in his career and extend his contract early. We truly believe Juanpe is capable of fulfilling the potential we see in him. I am confident that we won't have to wait long to see him take his first win," concluded Guercilena.
