UAE Team Emirates' star rider Tadej Pogacar is set to extend his contract with the team through 2032, reinforcing their longstanding partnership. Pogacar, a five-time Tour de France winner, has been a key figure in the team since 2019, becoming one of the most influential riders in cycling. Despite a challenging season following a crash at the Vuelta a Espana that ended his Grand Tour ambitions, Pogacar expressed his gratitude for the team's support and stated his desire to continue his development with UAE Team Emirates.
The rider emphasized that the team has become like a second home to him, and he is eager to achieve more in the sport.

Team principal Mauro Gianetti expressed pride in Pogacar's contributions to the team and reiterated that his return will be contingent on his full recovery.
