Visma-Lease a Bike has appointed former rider Nathan Van Hooydonck as sporting director with immediate effect, according to an ANP report published by Nieuws.nl. He will lead the cycling team’s sports management group. [1]

Van Hooydonck, 30, rode for the team from 2021 to 2023 before heart problems forced him to stop racing professionally. He remained involved with Visma-Lease a Bike through its Business Team. [1]

The appointment follows other changes in the team’s sports management. Visma-Lease a Bike said in September that Jacco Verhaeren would leave as its head at the end of the year. News of sporting director Grischa Niermann’s move to Lidl-Trek emerged in June. [1]
