That implies Matti is off to Rabo? Anyone heard anything to confirm that?. It would be a big loss IMHO
Honesty is the best Policy!!
I wouldn't be so sure. In this article it is said that it seems most likely that Breschel will continue at Sungard-XXX. However, the article says that Fuglsang seems lost for Riis. http://politiken.dk/sport/cykling/touren/article1023386.ece
Most of the news about Matti / Rabobank is from the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, which has not a very reliable reputation as I already mentioned before.
The link below is the first one where there is actually an opinion from a rider is being given:
With a US sponsor and Bike supplier, it might be a good move to get another American or Canadian rider.
The problem is that with Radio Shack and Garmin both having development teams and lots of North American riders on the Highroad and BMC rosters, there are not too many prospects who don't get signed early by them.
Larson Craddock has some decent results riding for team USA, he is only 18 so may be a bit young still.
The best bet could be Tejay Van Garderen who is going to be a good GC rider in a few years. He is under contract with HTC now, but was previously on the RaboBank developemnt team, so he has experience rided on a European team.
Sungard to sponsor Riis cycling?
