Pavel Sivakov joins Decathlon CMA CGM through 2029

Decathlon CMA CGM has announced the signing of Pavel Sivakov, who will join the French cycling squad through 2029. The French-naturalized rider is departing UAE Team Emirates after three seasons.

During his tenure at UAE Team Emirates, Sivakov served as a key domestique for Tadej Pogacar, playing a vital role in supporting the leader during major objectives. His move is viewed as a significant loss for the Emirati team and a major reinforcement for Decathlon CMA CGM, which aims to increase its prominence in the international peloton. Sivakov is expected to provide high-level experience to support riders such as Paul Seixas.
