Aimé De Gendt and Wesley Kreder will stay with Wanty-Gobert until at least the end of 2021 after both signing contract extensions, the team has announced.

The Belgian Pro Continental team – which will be known as Wanty Gobert-Tormans in 2020 – has extended both riders' contracts by another year, although neither rider was originally out of contract until the end of 2020.
