The first confirmed riders,arrived to our Team:
 | Ardennes Classic Leader | |  Eliot Lietaer : 27 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 100.000, we believe that he will give us good results in those hilly classics. |
 | Climber | | William Maesen : 26 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 50.000, although we are not a team focused on stages races, is always good to have a good climber in our squad. |

Another two riders arrived to our Team:
 | Ardennes Classic | | Jelle Wallays : 28 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 50.000, he is another key rider for hilly classics and with his high fighter stat, we believe that he will be in a lot of breakaways. |
| | Climber | | Ben Curfs : 27 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 50.000, an interesting man for mountains, he completed the couple of climbers in our team. |

Really like the addition of Wallays for 50k wages, love his hill stat and all around abilities but on the other hand, Lietaer at 100k seems like a little bit of a reach.
Overall though, your signings are good and I love the fact you're sticking to a nationality focus, good luck this season! |

Well, the market is hard and its difficult to sign a rider with high or decent stats in a cheap way, more, if im only looking for 2 nationalities 
But its okay for my first steps in MAN-Game 
Thanks for your words

Really like the Wallays signing, and I love the Proximus banner! Wish I had the graphic skills to do something like that at Kulczyk - DMTEX
Starting off very steady, it will be interesting to see how each of us do in our first season. Good luck for the transfers ahead!

A good start for you in the transfer window  . I can feel an early rivalry starting with our bidding wars in the FAs already. Looking forward to the challenge from our fellow Benelux new boys!

The Dutch Army is here:
 | Sprinter | |  Marco Brus : 30 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 90.000. He will be our fast man, an experienced rider that we believe could fight for the victory in the flat stages and classics. |
 | Flandrien Classics Leader | | Bert-Jan Lindeman : 28 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 160.000. Our Flandrien leader arrives, the deal was hard and the wage is high, but he was our last chance to have a decent leader for cobbled classics. We hope that he give us some important results in those races. |
 | Sprinter | | Boy van Poppel : 29 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 70.000. Completing the pair of sprinters, he isn't faster than Marco, but we think he will be very good at flat races and could be the last man for Marco in the sprints. |
 | Ardennes Classics | | Jasper Ockeloen : 27 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 50.000. He will be an importan teammate for our Ardennes Classics Leader. |

Domestiques and Youth riders arrived:
 | Ardennes Classics Domestique | | Frederik Backaert : 27 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 50.000. He will be one of our domestiques in hilly classics. |
 | Domestique | | Xandro Meurisse : 25 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 50.000. Xandro arrives to the team to help the leaders and with his exp.level we think that maybe rise his stats. |
| | Young Talent | | Boris Vallee : 24 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 50.000. A young rider that seems really good for a future sprinter, we hope he can rise his stats to a decent level. |
 | Young Talent | | Loic Vliegen : 24 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 50.000. Another young rider that seems really good for a future Ardennes Classics rider, we hope he can rise his stats to a decent level. |
 | Flandrien Classics Domestique | | Laurens de Vreese : 29 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 90.000. He will be an importan teammate for our Flanders Classics Leader. |
| | Flandrien Classics Domestique | | Kevin Fouquet : 29 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 80.000. He will be an important domestique in cobbled classics. |
| | Combative and Timetrialist | | Welle Jallays : 28 years old, he sign a contract with us by € 60.000. Although we don't have interest in Time Trial, always is important to have a rider with those characteristics and also we love that Fighter stat for the breakaways. |

Such an exciting classics team you have there, love the strict focus too. Definitely in the fight for promotion with some of the leaders and especially the strong domestiques you've signed.

Boy those infographics are great, well done.
You have some nice leaders for all terrains but the top scorer is missing and it may be hard for them to achieve wins, especially since back ups arn't that top notch either. With some nice race planning you could score consistently though given the discipline width of the team. Plus, you are a Gaviria man with a belgian squad so I will root for you hard in CT!

Thank you Shonak.
Well, we are a new CT Team, so I didn't expect to hire riders with >77 in main stats.
Sixteen decent riders with 75, 76, 77 it's okay for me. It will be a learning season for my team. |
