‘We have several requests’

“We are close to signing with them, with Arkea, a team that has been growing, that has respected me and that loves me, listens to my opinions. We want to continue if there is the possibility. The manager is there and it’s most likely,” Quintana told ‘Caracol radio’ in the last few hours.

Then, questioned for details about the renewal, Quintana was clear and spoke of the condition he has to continue with Arkea.

“There are some requests we have, like being able to bring more experienced, stronger riders, keep improving the team. We have already seen that today they announce the signing of (Clément) Champoussin, who is a rider who comes from AG2R, a young rider but who already has experience and will surely help us with the team’s work and also to win, he will surely be there disputing stages” (sic), he explained.
