Jorgensen extends through 2029 with Visma-Lease a Bike
American Matteo Jorgenson was one of the peloton's breakout stars in 2024 after moving from Movistar to Visma-Lease a Bike. And the two-time defending Paris-Nice champion is set to continue his run with one of the sport's best teams after signing an extension that will keep him at Visma at least through 2029. Head of racing Grischa Niermann said the team has "big plans" for its young American star, and it's clear that Jorgenson has thrived at the team.
"I felt at home here from the start and don’t see any other team where I can work with the same trust and calmness," said the 25-year-old in a press release from the team. "Honestly, it felt like an easy decision. I’ve set ambitious goals for the next four years and want to make this the peak of my career."
