After a year out of the professional racing circuit, Belgian domestique Julien Vermote is apparently set to be thrown a lifeline at the last possible moment by Visma-Lease a Bike in 2024, according to multiple media reports.
Visma-Lease a Bike began a last-minute hunt for a final rider for their 2024 roster following the unexpected announcement in December by team worker Lennard Hofstede that he would be quitting the sport, and Vermote is said to be close to a deal with the Dutch squad.
