‘This is how a rider transfer should work’ – Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe CEO explains the difference between the team’s two controversial mid-contract deals

Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe team manager Ralph Denk has claimed there are marked differences between the mid-contract transfers of Cian Uijtdebroeks and Maxim Van Gils, with the loss of Uijtdebroeks to Visma-Lease a Bike coming after a bitter divorce, while Lotto agreed a deal to let Van Gils go. 

Uijtdebroeks departed Denk’s team in December of 2023 after a messy transfer saga. At the time, there were reports of bullying, which both parties then denounced, alongside public criticisms from the Belgian of his time trial setup and the team’s tactics at the Vuelta.
