Vauquelin reportedly close to signing with Ineos
Kévin Vauquelin, who is currently sitting third overall at the Tour de France amid a breakthrough 2025 campaign, is reportedly close to signing a deal with the Ineos Grenadiers. The 24-year-old Frenchman turned pro with Arkéa-Samsic back in 2022 and has been with the team ever since, but the French squad is uncertain to continue into 2026 as its sponsors have decided to end their commitment after this season.
Ciro Scognamiglio of La Gazzetta dello Sport wrote on X on Wednesday that "according to our sources this deal can be considered almost done." [X]
