Lidl-Trek linked to Felix Gall, whose Decathlon contract is up at the end of the year

Ciro Scognamiglio of La Gazzetta dello Sport said Thursday on X that Lidl-Trek "is interested" in signing Felix Gall, whose contract with Decathlon-CMA CGM ends at the conclusion of the 2026 season.

The 28-year-old Austrian has been with the Decathlon organization since 2022 when it was known as AG2R Citröen. Since then, he has landed inside the top five at the Tour de France, and he is currently second behind Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) in the overall standings at the Giro d'Italia. Lidl-Trek's own GC ambitions at the race currently rest on the shoulders of Derek Gee-West, who is sitting in sixth overall. [X]
