ProTeam Signing announcement: Liam Slock extends his professional career with Lotto Dstny for two more years

He recently animated the early breakaway in the fourth stage of the Tour de Wallonie, and earlier this spring, Liam Slock was out front for many kilometers in both Paris-Roubaix and the Scheldeprijs. Lotto Dstny can rely on those legs for the next two seasons as well. Slock came through the development team of Lotto Dstny and has been a pro for two years. "So, I'm going to make it four now," says a satisfied Liam Slock. "We have a great group ready to further strengthen the classics team around Arnaud De Lie next year, and I’m eager to continue contributing to that."

"I feel at home in this team. I’ve known many of the riders since before I turned pro, and I get along well with the staff. Over the past few years, I’ve had great opportunities to grow, and I hope to give something back over the next two years to show my gratitude. I want to establish myself even more as a classics rider, with Paris-Roubaix being particularly important to me. This season, I finished 20th after making it into the early break, so it would be great to improve on that."

Stéphane Heulot, CEO of Lotto Dstny, is delighted to announce the extended stay of Liam Slock following the contract extension of Sébastien Grignard earlier this week: "Liam is also one of the strong links in Lotto Dstny’s classics team. He can get himself noticed in the early breakaway and is always ready to support the team. We’re very pleased to have him with us for another two years."
