Pogacar's 2027 plans discussed

Tadej Pogacar, the Slovenian cyclist who has won the Tour de France twice, is likely to compete in the 2027 edition of the race, according to his agent, Alex Carera, who spoke with the Italian broadcaster Rai.

Tour de France start location

The 2027 Tour de France will begin in Edinburgh on July 2nd, as confirmed by the race organizers. Pogacar, who has won the event twice, is expected to aim for a sixth victory in the prestigious cycling race.

Potential for another Grand Tour

Pogacar could also compete in another Grand Tour in 2027, according to his agent. This comes after a difficult experience in the 2023 Vuelta a España, which may motivate him to return to that race and achieve a significant victory.

Agent comments on Vuelta rivalry

Alex Carera noted that Pogacar has a personal desire to settle his score with the Vuelta, a sentiment he expressed in an interview with Rai on October 29th. Carera emphasized that Pogacar does not like unfinished business in his career.

Decision to be made in December

The final decision on which races Pogacar will participate in during 2027 will be made in December, during a team training camp in the United Arab Emirates. During this time, Pogacar will meet with key team officials to determine his racing schedule for the upcoming season.
