Jeandesbosz is a great support for any cobbler in any division, but as our plans are different and we're not focusing on buying a top cobbler for the moment, he's ended up in the transfers list.
Le Montagner is potentially a decent sprinter that can resist in the easier cobbler classics, he's not maxed yet either. He also has a good prologue ability!
Passalacqua is a top puncheur in CT, but not really in PCT, and he's looking to get leadership in another team in the lower division. His fighter stat of 80 makes him a very, very good attacker too.
Possoni is a great mountain domestique in every division, and has got good backup stats. He has overperformed several times for us last season, and he's looking for a team where he can shine!
Note that we are not giving any of these riders away, and all will be sold when/if the right offer comes.

We received offers for Passalacqua (leading bid is 100k and am looking for at least 50k more if you want to outbid the current one), and are happy to say Moser, Sterbini and Martinelli have reached a provisional agreement with their 99% likely loaling teams for the 2016 season.
We are still going to listen for offers concerning the good sprint train asset Fonzi (either PT loan to max him out or transfer to any division), Jeandesbosz, Le Montagner, and Possoni.
Jeandesbosz is a great, reliable cobbles domestique and you can get him for only 50k. He can be of great help to any team having a decent focus on cobbles, but I won't mind keeping him considering he's a really good rider.
Exactly the same can be said for Possoni, great mountain domestique that managed to outscore the designated leaders in some stage races at CT level. He can be useful for at least another season, and wasn't it for the fact I have no emphasis on the mountains, I would keep him all day long.
Last, but surely not least, we are looking into selling Le Montagner, a great talent and potentially huge point scorer in CT. Best for him would be getting loaned in PCT and then in PT to get maxed out, but for this very reason, he doesn't fit in out plans. If trained as a cobbler for 2 years straight, his stats will be 77 sprint and 72 cobble, which makes him a great rider for flat, cobbled classics.
Jeandesbosz and Le Montagner will remain with the team unless we receive more than 100k for each (or a loan offer for Le Montagner where the receiving (PCT) team pays all the wage).
We sold Fonzi and the leading bid is currently held by Hankook with 100k total between wage and fees.
However, one rider is still available and that is Possoni. We're willing to sell him for negotiable 50k, he's a very valuable mountain domestique and has got his last year to shine. His wage is 57k so very cheap as well. Has overperformed several times last year with a lot of top 10s preceding our designated leaders, and his 74 mo, 73 hi, c.a 70 backups, make him a solid rider for any team in any division.
