Wisniowski and Kragh were our big target starting this transfer season. We're very excited to announce we made it work. Wisniowski joins the team, and will of course lead the line on the cobbles. We're confident we've signed a true world class cobbler, who can also excel in other classics, like he has shown the past seasons.

Kragh is a rider we've asked for in all seasons he has been at Grieg-Maersk. We couldn't believe it when we heard he was available, and then making it happen is a dream come true. He'll be a key rider for us, as we look to make the most of him as our leader for classics and flat races. He did great in that role at Grieg-Maersk, and we'll do our best to continue that in a new environment for him.

Mohoric was a surprise to see join us, as we didn't really have him in our thoughts before King Power approached us. We're happy to have made a deal work with them. He'll lead us in the Ardennes and in similar races, and hopefully should score quite a bit more points than last season, where he also was present at the Tour de France.

Preidler is the fourth new signing who is sort of a big name. He had a great 2021 with MOL, and we hope to see him do similar things with us. He's assumed to get a role as a GT stage hunter, but also leading the line in the more difficult hybrid races.

Our final signing to announce was also the first, as Alexander Kamp joins us from the Free Agency. We like his combination of stats, and we think he'll fit perfect in our team.

Thank you to all managers involved in the deals that have seen riders join us, but also riders leave. In addition to those mentioned earlier, Niklas Larsen, Amund Grondahl Jansen and David Wohrer have left the team.

We're very happy to bring in Dainese and Konychev on loan from Assa Abloy. They will both get the chance to shine in our jersey. The former will mostly be stage hunting in stage races and Grand Tours, while Konychev together with Kragh, but sometimes also Wiswniowski, will lead us in flat classics.

Looking further, it's clear we've strengthened our team time trial setup. It's not EA Vesuvio standard, but we're confident we'll do well in TTTs this year. Nareklishvili, Eaton, Hofer and loan signing Van Moer will all be part of it. One of them could even be benched if we notice a drop in performance, as we've got 9 riders competing for 8 spots for the pure TTT events.

Then we've got three more loanees with us in 2022. Van Poucke, Primozic and Stokbro will have different roles in the team. The latter will follow Wisniowski and be key for our cobbles campaign, while Primozic and Van Poucke will mostly ride stage races and get freedom to also chase stage glory.

We're now very close to being done with our transfer season.
