UAE Team Emirates have officially announced their plans to launch a new developmental team at continental level for next season called ‘UAE Team Emirates Gen Z’.
"The young squad will be made-up predominantly of riders in the Under-20 category with an international line-up," says an official announcement on the team's website. "The Gen Z team, which will share the existing team service course, will benefit from the wealth of shared resources from UAE Team Emirates in terms of using the most advanced support structure as well as access to the best material, coaching and nutrition."
