Van den Broeck set to sign for Katusha
Having struggled to find a team for 2016 and beyond, Jurgen Van den Broeck is close to agreeing terms for a deal with Katusha for next season. Cyclingnews spoke to the team on Thursday morning and they confirmed that they are in talks with the Belgian but pen had not been put to paper.
Van den Broeck has been Lotto-Soudal's general classification rider since Cadel Evans left the team after 2009 to ride for BMC and has recorded three top-eight grand tour finishes in that time. The 32-year-old has struggled to find his best grand tour form since the 2012 Tour de France, where he finished fourth overall, with 12th place at this year's Giro d'Italia his best result in a three-week race since.
