We're currently very keen to sell the following rider:
 | Yoann Paillot | 4.100 | 31yo | TTer | €220.000 |
| Fl | Mo | Hi | TT | St | Rs | Rc | Co | Sp | Ac | Fi | Dh | Pr | | 70 | 70 | 71 | 80 | 75 | 74 | 68 | 56 | 63 | 64 | 56 | 71 | 80 |
Yoann Paillot is a top level TTer, and would be a superb leader in any division. Cash is preferred so we can push a deal for his replacement over the line. We also welcome expressions of interest in other riders - Louis Meintjes, Anthony Turgis, Simone Velasco and Xhuliano Kamberaj are the most likely to be sold at the moment - but we can't make any deals until we have an offer for Paillot on the table. More information on those riders to come later! |

Have had some expressions of interest in Paillot, but nothing concrete yet so still welcoming all offers. Having made some enquiries we now feel confident in bringing another of our riders onto the market:
 | Simone Velasco | 4.100 | 27yo | Puncheur | €120.000 |
| FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | | | 73 | 72 | 76 | 60 | 75 | 71 | 68 | 64 | 69 | 76 | 75 | 69 | 62 |
On the surface, Simone Velasco doesn't look to have the most remarkable stats. But with his strong acceleration and fighter, plus good all round abilities, he was a frequent threat from breakaways last season - fighting for KoM jerseys and stage wins at Grand Tours. Now fully maxed, we're excited to see what he can do given better opportunities elsewhere, and we'll consider any fee starting from the minimum (100k). |

| | Yoann Paillot | 4.100 | 31yo | TTer | €220.000 |
| Fl | Mo | Hi | TT | St | Rs | Rc | Co | Sp | Ac | Fi | Dh | Pr | | 70 | 70 | 71 | 80 | 75 | 74 | 68 | 56 | 63 | 64 | 56 | 71 | 80 |
Yoann Paillot has a leading offer of 700k - a steal in our eyes. Get in touch if you're interested!
| Simone Velasco | 4.100 | 27yo | Puncheur | €120.000 |
| FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | | | 73 | 72 | 76 | 60 | 75 | 71 | 68 | 64 | 69 | 76 | 75 | 69 | 62 |
Simone Velasco is yet to attract any interest. 121st in the PT standings with 283 points and stage wins in the Vuelta and in the Volta a Portugal as an unmaxed rider, he could be a real bargain for anyone willing to take a chance.
As we've not had sufficient interest in our riders currently on the market to allow us to make other deals, we're now welcoming offers on two other riders:
| Anthony Turgis | 4.100 | 28yo | Puncheur | €340.000 |
| FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | | | 73 | 67 | 79 | 65 | 76 | 78 | 70 | 65 | 70 | 77 | 83 | 67 | 68 |
Anthony Turgis was one of the key men in our PCT title winning campaign two seasons ago, and won the Classique du Grand-Duche last season in the one and only PT hilly classic we entered him in. While we're not set on selling him, for the right price we'd definitely consider it to allow other moves.
 | Ruben Guerreiro | 4.100 | 28yo | Puncheur | €135.000 |
| FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | | | 71 | 76 | 77 | 62 | 73 | 73 | 77 | 63 | 72 | 72 | 61 | 67 | 62 |
Ruben Guerreiro bears an uncanny similarity to the kind of rider who seems to be getting money thrown at them in FA this season. He's been a key member of our mountain and hill squads over the past couple of seasons, but we'd be happy to give him a chance to ride for himself if the price is right. |

Paillot has a leading offer of 700k and will have a thread posted later this evening.
Velasco, Turgis and Guerreiro have attracted limited interest - we'd still welcome offers!
Xhuliano Kamberaj may also be available for the right price - 3 Tour de France stage wins last season including the first and last stages gives you an idea of his abilities. That potentially applies for all of our riders, though with most of our targets off the market in many cases we simply can't sell. |

Thread is up for Yoann Paillot at 700k, but offers still welcomed. You can PM, or post in the thread here: https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread...d_id=62459
We're adding another rider to the trade block to see if we can drum up any interest, as mentioned earlier:
 | Xhuliano Kamberaj | 4.100 | 28yo | Sprinter | €175.000 |
| Fl | Mo | Hi | TT | St | Rs | Rc | Co | Sp | Ac | Fi | Dh | Pr | | 75 | 63 | 69 | 67 | 73 | 73 | 78 | 68 | 79 | 78 | 64 | 66 | 70 |
Xhuliano Kamberaj won three stages of last year's Tour de France, including the first and last, on his way to 2nd place in the Green Jersey standings. Sprinters may be a gamble at times, but we think he represents a safe choice - send an offer in if you agree! |

Paillot is now at 850k.
Velasco is available for 100k, if anyone is interested in taking him on.
Turgis, Guerreiro and Kamberaj are yet to attract any concrete interest. We're still wanting to listen to offers for them - and indeed for any rider, though some are very unlikely to be sold. |

Paillot is now at 1 million.
It looks likely that Turgis and Guerreiro will be off the market unless something suddenly changes. You can still enquire - as with any rider - but we're almost out of options.
Kamberaj remains potentially for sale, though the window of opportunity on that is closing.
Velasco still hasn't found a home - I basically just want to avoid a sacking so please do get in touch!
We're also interested in loaning in riders, with you paying the wage and us paying the fee - they can be maxed or otherwise. Ideally 50k wage riders, but we're open to negotiation depending on how other loans work out. |

Paillot is at 1.25 million. I presume anyone else interested will have joined the bidding by now, and I'm sure the others involved would hope so 
Velasco still needs a home, otherwise he may be sacked. Yours for 100k, first come first served. |

Paillot is finally gone!
Velasco still needs a home though. If you offer 100k he's yours - and it would enable us to definitely take on a loanee without risking running out of budget, so we'd be keen to make a deal!
| Simone Velasco | 4.100 | 27yo | Puncheur | €120.000 |
| FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | | | 73 | 72 | 76 | 60 | 75 | 71 | 68 | 64 | 69 | 76 | 75 | 69 | 62 |

Last call for Velasco - buy now and avoid a fight for him in free agency tomorrow!
We have 54k of budget and 50k of loan cap remaining. Let us know if you could use that money and have a rider to loan to us - we have 20k of salary cap space as well. |
