Belgian media: Jens Keukeleire to move to Lotto-Soudal

Belgian media report that Orica-Scott rider Jens Keukeleire may be continuing his career at Lotto-Soudal next season.

After seven years in the Australian formation, the rider is set to make a move to a team of his own country, as is reported by Het Nieuwsblad.

The newspaper mentions that even though he has been comfortable in the team, he has lately been missing the company of his fellow countrymen, a feeling he discovered during the past European and World Championships.

Keukeleire would be replacing Jürgen Roelandts, who is reportedly moving to BMC, and would have chances to fight for the titles at the Spring Classics, along with Tiesj Benoot. He could also be an important part of Andre Greipel's sprint train.

The 28-year-old rider would come to the Belgian team with a contract for two years.
