Owain Doull signs two-year contract with Visma to 'guide our young talents in classics and sprints'
Owain Doull, currently of EF Education-EasyPost, has signed a two-year contract with Visma-Lease a Bike.
"Last season was my best so far and I expect that I can take another step forward with this team," Doull said. "I'm very excited about the opportunity I'm getting here with one of the best teams in the world."
The 2016 Olympic team pursuit gold medallist is coming to the end of four years with EF, following five and a half with Ineos. Since committing to the road, he's specialised in the classics, latterly becoming something of a road captain. It's this that the 32-year-old Welshman has been recruited for.
"Owain's most important role will be to guide our young talents in the classics and sprints," said Grischa Niermann, senior sports director at Visma-Lease a Bike.
