One of the great prides of John Lelangue is the place given to young people. Florian Vermeersch, Sebastien Grignard, Viktor Verschaeve, Xandres Vervloesem, Harry Sweeny, Maxim Van Gils et Arnaud DeLie came out of the pool of the U23 team. Lennert Van Eetvelt, Liam Slock et Alec Segaert will follow. And we can add Sylvain Moniquet, recruited within the Conti of Groupama. The enumeration is indeed quite impressive. Even thoughThere were also misses, like Ilan Van Wilder who turned pro at Sunweb before joining the Wolfpack.
“We have hired a lot of young people, we see that they are reaching maturity and that others will reach maturity in 2-3 years. An Alec Segaert for example. We can see that this is bearing fruit. We know that when we invest in young people, it takes time. Some are already there, others are in the development team, some will come from the partnership we signed with the Chevigny team.“, explains Lelangue.
