33-year-old Haga, who has been with the team since turnin🐈g pr🌞o back in 2014, wrote that he's planning to challenge himself with a new team, but didn't reveal any details of a move for 2022.
"8 years ago, I joined Team DSM, a single bike racer unfamiliar with Europe and already old by today's standards. The years since then have been an experience that I wouldn🔥't trade for anything!" he wrote.
"I got to help my teammates win races like Milan-San Remo, the Giro d'Italia, the GPs Québec and Montréal, and so many others, as well as snagging one myself – not to mention the countless team performances that didn't result in victory bಌut deserved to.
"Aꦡlong the way, I got hit by a car, got married, lost m💫y father to cancer, became a father, and became more familiar with Europe than I ever imagined. The whole time, I have prayed that when it was time to move on, God would make that clear and open the right doors at the right time just as He did at the beginning of my career.
"Now it's time to walk through that door and challenge myself in new ways on a new team, and I'm excited to share that news soon. For now, I just want to thank🍎 Team DSM for 8 unforgettable years, and I'll see you on the road!"
