The merge created a hollow

Jumbo-Visma has 24 athletes until 2024, but it's likely that only six will have their offers extended. However, the most significant concern is that athletes may face layoffs after the mergers.

Renowned sports agent expressed his concerns

The leading name in the sports world, João Correia, the CEO of Correia’s agency, a renowned name in the cycling world, raised his concerns, stating, ‘It’s the riders who get hurt.’

Layoffs overlapped the sports world

Apart from the sports arena, the risks of jobs extend to corporal employment. According to the sources, very few of the Soudal’s employees will be able to extend it further.
