Weekly Transfer Analysis Part 5: Trek-Segafredo & Bahrain-Victorious
Trek continues to build out a strong, but largely unproven, roster, while Bahrain struggles to retain a core that has brought them considerable success in recent seasons
In this weekend’s installment of the Weekly Transfer Analysis, we are breaking down the off-season transfer activity of Trek-Segafredo, who continues to build a promising young roster despite failing to fill their massive grand tour GC contender deficit, and Bahrain-Victorious, who has struggled to replace a significant exodus of talent and is now potentially closer to worrying about staying out of the dreaded ‘relegation zone’ than landing back in the top half of the end-of-season team points rankings.
