The transfer window officially opened on August 1st and has been in full swing for over a month now, and it certainly isn’t over yet when considering the number of riders whose contracts are expiring.
In the WorldTour alone, there are still over 140 riders whose contracts will end on December 31st, according to the ProCyclingStats website. Riders like Geraint Thomas (INEOS Grenadiers), Sam Bennett (BORA-hansgrohe), Nacer Bouhanni (Team Arkéa-Samsic), and others are on this list, even though the possibility of not renewing their contracts is remote.
On the other hand, some riders may unfortunately have more difficulty finding a new team for 2024. Below, you’ll find the names of the riders whose contracts are expiring, keeping in mind that some teams may not disclose contract extensions.
