Bombshell in the cycling world: Maxim Van Gils wants to cancel contract (and to Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe?), Lotto-Dstny confirms talks
Maxim Van Gils (24) has dropped a serious bomb in the cycling world. The young talent is said to have terminated his contract with Lotto-Dstny. It’s still not entirely clear where he wants to go. Remarkably, a mechanic and caretaker from Van Gils attended the recent Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe team days.
The chaos in the camp Lottery – Dstny and far beyond: suddenly they threaten the creation of Belgium lose the golden badge.
Maxim van Gilswhich this year was good for 3rd place in the Strade Bianche and the Flèche Wallonne and a win in Eschborn-Frankfurt, ending his contract.
Where his future is still unknown. But that a carer and mechanic from Van Gils recently showed up at Red Bull team daysBora-Hansgrohehitting The German formation has 5 spots available in the election for next year.
Has the young talent already announced where he will ride next year? Anyway, Van Gils himself didn’t want to confirm anything yet.
He mentioned his management, but they also did not reveal anything. “We can’t confirm or deny anything. The future will make it clear where it goes.”
Exit talks are part of the talks.
Lotto-Dstny
At 7pm Lotto-Dstny released a statement: “We are currently in discussions with Maxim Van Gils and his management about the future together. Discussions about leaving are part of this.”
“All parties want this to proceed in the cleanest, most legal and smoothest way possible. We do not wish to comment at this time until the negotiations continue quietly.”
Van Gils management (A&J All Sports Media from top agent Alex Carrera) confirmed that message.
Lotto-Dstny cannot win the Van Gils prize
Van Gils unilateral contract break would be great as he had extended his contract with Lotto-Dstny in the spring. However, the puncher achieved many noticeable results after signing and wanted to make a profit.
However, the Belgian team encountered financial constraints, including as a result of the withdrawal of sponsor Dstny, which meant that Van Gils did not receive any response. That is now being transferred to other teams.
However, breach of contract in the peloton is not an everyday occurrence. Only when an agreement is reached between the rider, his old team and the new team is there a clean divorce.
If Lotto-Dstny holds the ground, a legal blow is likely.
