The 2027 transfer window is getting WILD, and there are some huge moves to talk about in the latest Pro Cycling Transfer Talks!
Felix Gall is officially heading to Lidl-Trek, with Gregor Mühlberger joining him from Decathlon CMA CGM. But with Juan Ayuso and Mattias Skjelmose already on the roster, as well as Mads Pedersen and Jonathan Milan, could Lidl-Trek end up with too many chefs in the kitchen? How will the team balance its Grand Tour ambitions with so many major leaders and stars?
We also look at Richard Carapaz and the latest rumours surrounding his future, including a possible move to Pinarello Q36.5 or a return to Ineos Grenadiers. Could Carapaz really go back to the team where he won the Giro d’Italia?
And then there is Primož Roglič. With his future still one of the biggest questions in the transfer market, where could the four-time Vuelta winner end up in 2027? Could Tudor Pro Cycling be his next destination, or is another team going to make the move?
We break down the biggest confirmed transfers, rumours and potential moves shaping the 2027 peloton and ask what these transfers could mean for the balance of power across the WorldTour.

The Vuelta a España 2026 has delivered one of the most dramatic Grand Tours in recent memory, and now it’s time to rank every team that took on the race. Tadej Pogačar looked completely dominant before his crash dramatically changed the entire GC battle, opening the door for Enric Mas to take a huge outright victory. Meanwhile, Visma | Lease a Bike have been one of the defining forces of the race, with Matthew Brennan and Wout van Aert both playing major roles throughout the Vuelta. We break down every team’s performance, looking at the biggest successes, disappointments, standout riders and the moments that shaped their race, from the GC battle to the sprint stages and everything in between.

Remco Evenepoel has emerged as one of the leading favourites for the 2026 World Championship road race in Montréal, especially with Tadej Pogačar now out of the race. After another impressive performance in Canada, Evenepoel looks to be arriving at the Worlds in serious form, but the Belgian will face some incredibly dangerous rivals on what promises to be a brutal and unpredictable course.
Mathieu van der Poel brings his explosive power and experience on demanding one-day races, while Isaac Del Toro has just delivered a huge statement by winning the GP de Montréal ahead of Paul Seixas, showing that he could be one of the biggest threats to Evenepoel's hopes of taking the rainbow jersey. Seixas himself continues to establish himself as one of the most exciting young riders in the world and could play a major role on home soil.
With Pogačar absent, the World Championship is wide open. Can Evenepoel take advantage and reclaim the rainbow jersey, or will Van der Poel, Del Toro, Seixas or another contender produce the ride of their career in Montréal?Remco Evenepoel has emerged as one of the leading favourites for the 2026 World Championship road race in Montréal, especially with Tadej Pogačar now out of the race.

Stage 21 brings the 2026 Vuelta a España to its conclusion, with the final stage providing one last opportunity for the sprinters and fast finishers to make their mark. Brennan and Wout van Aert headline the discussion as we look back at the action from the final day, the key moments that shaped the finale and how the Vuelta ultimately came to an end. We also reflect on the biggest stories from three weeks of racing, the performances that stood out and what this Vuelta means for the riders heading into the final part of the season.

The Vuelta a España’s queen stage delivered a brutal final showdown in the Sierra Nevada, with almost 5,000 metres of climbing packed into 187 kilometres and the race for the red jersey reaching its decisive moment on the Collado del Alguacil.
