British WorldTour neo-pro Gabriel Cullaigh will make his debut with Movistar at the Tour Down Under in Australia, kicking off his 2020 season early along with fellow new signings Juri Hollmann of Germany and Sergio Samitier of Spain. Also in Movistar's seven-rider squad are Jürgen Roelandts, Edu Prades, Lluís Mas and Jorge Arcas.

Movistar have opted for a more gradual season debut for new team leader Enric Mas and veteran Alejandro Valverde. Both are expected to race in Movistar's new dot fade blue jersey at the Challenge Mallorca races at the end of January.
