Very strong team with many valuable pieces
Lidl-Trek presents itself in 2026 as one of the most complete teams, capable of competing on multiple fronts.
The most expensive rider will be Mads Pedersen (54): essential in the northern classics, but also useful in the stage races, where he has shown he can bring in important points.
There are four other riders over 30 million : Milan (36), Ayuso (35), Ciccone (31) and Skjelmose (31). Strong men on different terrains, whose presence certifies the versatility of the American team.
At an affordable price, however, two classic players, such as the certainty Skujins (18) and the talent on the launch pad Simmons (15), whose price has significantly increased.
Nys, on the other hand, remains an unknown at 11 fantamillions, given the less than exciting season that just ended.
Many interesting riders even among the low-priced ones. Among these we point out the young Philipsen (4), Vacek (4) good for all types of terrain, the sprinter Teutenberg (3) and Sobrero (4).
However, Kamna (4), Walscheid (2) and Bagioli (8) remain some very risky but potentially profitable ventures .
