Mathieu van der Poel has "had enough of training" and is raring to get back to competition this cyclocross season, according to his Alpecin-Deceuninck manager Christoph Roodhooft.

The Dutchman hasn't yet raced this winter after a spell of training in Spain. However, he will begin a possible 13-race campaign soon with an appearance at the fourth round of the UCI World Cup in Namur, Belgium.
