In the Vuelta a España, Richard Plugge (CEO of Jumbo-Visma) aims to achieve a unique trilogy with his Jumbo-Visma team: winning three Grand Tours in a single season. Roglic won the Giro, Vingegaard the Tour, and now both have been designated to win the Vuelta a España 2023.

With these two leaders, it could make history in the world of professional cycling. Furthermore, there was a rumor that Primoz Roglic might be open to leaving Jumbo-Visma; this rumor linked the Slovenian rider to Lidl-Trek, which, with the sponsorship of the Lidl supermarket chain, has seen a significant increase in its budget.
Jumbo-Visma immediately denied this, and in an important interview with the Belgian newspaper Het Nieuwsblad, Jumbo-Visma’s director, Richard Plugge, stated that he does not want to lose Primoz Roglic in any way. He praised the Slovenian rider.
Roglic, King of Jumbo-Visma
“Letting Primoz go? That would be very bad, he is our king. I think it’s a load of crap. Everything started for our team with him in 2016. Along with Dylan Groenewegen, he brought victories to our team.”
“He is the team leader, but now Jonas as well. Roglic is someone who always goes forward with his resilience and fighting spirit, no matter where he is. With his final attack, he can achieve many victories.”
Leadership Division
“The greatest personalities in the world are those who can also share it with others. Primoz is an example of that. Of course, Jonas could also say: I’ve won the Tour twice, what are we talking about? But he also has a big and different personality. He also concedes to Primoz. Sincerely. When Jonas was still a boy, Primoz taught him many lessons,” Plugge concludes.
