Patrick Lefevere knocks on car door, and Remco Evenepoel’s father is shocked by Soudal-Quickstep and Jumbo-Visma merger

“Suddenly, a bombshell drops in the world of World Tour cycling. Renowned cycling website WielerFlits revealed on Sunday night that Soudal-QuickStep is working on a merger with Jumbo-Visma.

However, after the Anderlecht Belgian football team’s game on Sunday, where Soudal Quickstep boss Patrick Lefevere and Remco Evenepoel’s father (they were not together) were present, both reacted strongly, not hiding their surprise when they realized that the press had released the information.

Patrick Levefere even slammed the car door

The Wolfpack boss didn’t have much to say. “My phone exploded? I don’t have it with me. If you want to believe WielerFlits, believe it. Interpret it as you wish. No comments, sorry.

In all the commotion, Lefevere also slammed the car door against the car parked next to him. Hopefully, it wasn’t Richard Plugge’s car from Jumbo-Visma, his colleague for the next season.”

“Remco Evenepoel’s father says he’s shocked

The Evenepoel family was also present at the Anderlecht game, and Remco’s father, Patrick Evenepoel, when asked by the TV channel Sporza, expressed his surprise, saying, ‘We are shocked.’

Shortly after, the question to Patrick was about Remco Evenepoel’s feelings about the news that shook the world of cycling on Sunday evening. The response was brief: ‘He is shocked too.'”
