“I am extremely happy to join Soudal Quick-Step, a team that I followed on television when I was young, especially at the time of Tom Boonen“He said in a statement.
His arrival is part of a global reconstruction context since the announcement of the departure of Remco Evenepoel. The Belgian team pursues the goal of finding its DNA with a pronounced objective for the classics.

Former national road champion and time trial, and silver medalist at the 2021 world championships, Dylan notably has an impressive record on the classic cobblestones. It has finished eleven times in the top 10 spring classics in the past ten years – results that make it one of the most regular runners of the current peloton on this type of racing. “”My goal is to find my best level for the classics and, hopefully, to fight for victory. I also want to help the runners in the general classification as much as possible on the big towers, and why not aim for a stage victory there or on the races of a week if the opportunity arises“said Dylan again after signing the contract.
