The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Deceuninck-QuickStep team will lose one title sponsor and keep another, with Quick-Step Floors🎶 extending its partnership for six more years while PVC extrusion company Deceuninck announced its departure at the end of this season.

"We are very happy t💙o continue our partnership with Quick-Step, who have been at our side for over two decades now," team manager and CEO Patrick Lefevere said.
"It's more than your usual sponsor extension; it's proof that solid relationships exist in cycling, based on trust, mutual respect and shared values. This long-term agreement will allow us to continue striving to improve the quality of our sp▨orts performances, to focus on the future and aim remain among the best in the sport.💜"

"My leaders are being preyed on, yes. Everyone is trying to take my squad apart. It is up to me to keep them together. That's why I have to sign-up a number of men now. Not all 30, but the cornerstones fꦚor the coming years," Lefevere said laꦫst month.
Peter Sagan was linked to Lefevere's team with s♏peculation he would leave Bora-Hansgrohe anꦗd join the Belgian squad, with bicycle-maker Specialized a key factor in the move.
It is un🤪clear whether Deceuninck's exit will alter any of th🙈ose plans.
