YOUNG STARS SIGN FOR XACOBEO
Alpher Pilhal will be one of our only signing outside of our country bracket this season (It's Columbia, Portugal and Spain btw) he won two races in the Under 23 last season but needs to improve on the flat to win some stages promising though.
Franco Queseda we hope he can become our leader in the Ardennes next year a great signing for our team. |

No Surprices as Xacobeo Sign 3 More Riders
First Signing:
Rafeal Valls signed for us after he was released from his contract at Footon-Servetto following there relegation he will be a good mountain domestique this year.
Edgar Pinto is a guy we had on a radar from the start of the year and were delighted to be able to call on his services this year he will be a brilliant asset.
Diego Milan is another good young spanish rider who's services we can call upon he has a decent sprint and could pick up some good results in the spanish races this year with hopefully a couple of good Protour results as well.

Xacobeo Sign Young Starlets
The signing of these two young climbers had been thought out for a long time Egor Silin was not our first choice but a young spanish climber refused to join us and he was called in while Sergio Henao had been on our shortlist since we were tipped off by Jose Rujano of a good South American Climber winning most mountain top finshes so Henao became a signing. |

Goss Missing Piece in the puzzle
Matthew has come her to be our Lead Sprinter this year and also our best classics rider with just 1 week of the transfer season left we feel he is an important signing.

Soler was snapped up right on the last day of the transfer season and with the choice of no ride or a protected rider slot Juan has chosen to come to our team and become our final signing. |
