Overview
- Visma manager Richard Plugge publicly said his team wants the young rider but will respect his existing contract and is not conducting concrete negotiations now.
- Seixas is under contract with Decathlon CMA CGM through the end of 2027, which teams and his current employer say must be honored.
- Decathlon CMA CGM has postponed formal talks until after the Tour and says it is prepared to invest in keeping him by strengthening the roster.
- Other top WorldTour squads, including UAE, Pinarello Q36.5, Red Bull-Bora and Ineos, have already expressed interest in signing the rider.
- Seixas, who won the 2025 Tour de l'Avenir and is currently sixth on his first Tour de France, has seen his market value rise and could prompt post-Tour recruitment moves and contract battles.
