Gianni Moscon has confirmed that he will be back at Ineos Grenadiers for 2021, pre-empting a team announcement about his future. The controversial Italian was out of contract at the end of this season and only raced 20 days, prompting speculation about his future role at Ineos.

The 26-year-old's top result in 2020 was eighth on stage 2 of the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana, with his last professional victory coming at the 2018 Tour of Guangxi.
