I really like Sprenger, bid for him for a reason…
Boni and Affini really nice and good nationality. Shaping up to be interesting after Coquard

I hope that Bonifazio does well for you. He was the first rider on my FA plan, so obviously it sucks to see him on another team, but that is the game

It's been a good start to transfers for you and it will be interesting to see which talents you'll bring in on top!

Love the Sprenger signing and Bonifazio is a lovely sprinter who everyone* loves for a reason. Hopefully he can show that throughout the season.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Or he'll end in another toxic relationship ...

Great signings, but really here to highlight one hell of a jersey. I can't wait to see these colors in the peloton next year. Iconic on many a level!

Affini is also a good pickup.

@Everyone - Thanks all! Really happy with how the window is going for us at the moment. Especially with signing Italian riders when we have changed focus. Still a bit more to update after this transfers update. Quite a bit of movement this season!
In the off season there is a transfers window with a few types of signings. We have gone through Part 1 of our Free agency signings already. Now we are going through the riders we have signed from other teams in a cash or swap deal. A very interesting group of riders joining us this season!
Pellizzari is a future great of Italian cycling! When we saw his availability we had to jump on the opportunity! He joins us for 600k from Bralirwa - Cegeka. Once maxed, he will be the leader in many races where the road goes straight up! We can't wait to see him in action and I am sure he will be of great use this season!

Della Lunga is another rider we aimed for from the start. A really exciting young classics/leadout rider. His development is extremely close to being finished and once it is done he will be of excellent help in many different areas! We gained him, along with Prasad, in a deal from Aker - ABInBev for 900k total for both riders.

A Spanish climber. He is here for one reason only, support and mentor Carlos Rodriguez. Roson is very experienced and while he is no longer at his best, he definitely has the climbing legs to support Rodriguez when he needs it most! We paid 150k for Roson and are excited to see him in the Green and Purple!

Finally we have come to our co sprint leader. When the manager of Aker - ABInBev approached us about this guy, we were interested but skeptical. Once Bonifazio confirmed though we new a guy of the calibre of Prasad was worth it. His experience in the PT will be a huge help for the younger guys. He will be our main sprint leader in races while Bonifazio will lead in the other sprint races. We should have some great coverage in the sprints this season!
