Soudal-QuickStep continue to pursue Classics riders in transfer market – another sign of early departure for Remco Evenepoel?

Even after his abandon from the Tour de France, Remco Evenepoel‘s future remains an ongoing saga this summer, with the latest Soudal-QuickStep transfer links possibly pointing further to his departure.

Dylan van Baarle is the latest name reportedly on the Belgian squad’s radar, with the likes of Jasper Stuyven, Edward Planckaert already expected to be on board for next year. After Yves Lampaert extended his contract on Monday, the Classics seem to be fully back in focus for the former one-day masters, instead of building a core of Grand Tour support for their big star.
