Primož Roglič has extended his contract with Jumbo Visma, with the new deal set to bring him to the end of 2025, which will be around the end of his career.
The Slovenia is now aged 32 years and the new deal will expire when he is aged 36 years. It will mean he will spend at least a decade at the Dutch WorldTour team.
He joined the team, then LottoNL-Jumbo, in 2016 after riding for Slovenian Continental team Adria Mobil for three years. Roglič came to cycling late having first followed a career as a ski jumper.
He was already been signed up to Jumbo Visma until the end of 2023 but the extension he has agreed now adds two seasons onto that tenure.

"I have grown with this team since I arrived in 2016. We already have quite a history together that I am very proud of," Roglič said. "I made my debut in the World Tour peloton at a somewhat later age.
"It may have looked easy, and the best moments surface the fastest, but it wasn’t always easy. My goals are independent of results.
“I want to keep developing myself in specific areas. Both physically and mentally, as a team leader and as a person. I’m in the right place for that. We will see what we will focus on in the coming years.”
