Is this a dejavu?
Two seasons ago a japanese superstar signed for redop, his name is known to all: Yasunari Yamauchi.
Now another japanese superstar is also joining redop, his name: Uramoto Ko.
Ko has a contract with Hommerts Cycling Team, where he makes a dream double with japanese companion Susumu Miyazaki.
His team has however decided to recharge batteries for next season, and was looking to loan Ko in the mean time.
Many teams were in the run to secure the services of Ko, but HCT finally decided that redop was the best choice.
Important for that decision was redop's japanese superstar Yasunari Yamauchi who will make Ko feel at home. The chance to compete at the highest level possible was also interesting to Ko, and finally the good relationship between redop and HCT made the deal real.
"I'm happy to present Ko, he and YY will make a dream japanese duo. I want to personally thank Justin to make this duo a reality for the season.
This is the second big signing of the season after the experienced cobbler Jari Fredriksson, and I can say to our fans that the surprise big signings are not over.
More high profile riders might join redop in the near future. Stay with us to hear it all in the first moment!"
