The NTT Pro Cycling team has confirmed that Domenico Pozzovivo will join the team for 2020 after recovering from a career threatening car strike in Italy that left him with multiple fractures in his leg, upper and lower arms and collarbone.

The 37-year-old Italian climber has worked hard during an extensive period of rehabilitation and recently completed a block of warm-weather training in Gran Canaria.
