NEW TEAM
In 2021 he signed for UAE Team Emirates after leaving Team Sunweb. "I wanted a different environment and was looking for a sporting challenge. UAE Emirates was very strong last year, also with young people. That appealed to me. In addition, the team is very advanced in science and nutrition. In the long term I will progress further with that." (nieuwsblad.be, 23 Mar 2021)
