€50 million in six years and a €200 million buyout clause – Tadej Pogačar's new contract revealed

Tadej Pogačar won Il Lombardia 2024 in the rainbow jersey.

Tadej Pogačar will earn €50 million in the next six years, making him by far the highest-paid rider in professional cycling, with a €200 million buyout clause making it impossible for rival teams to entice him away from UAE Team Emirates.
