Matteo Trentin has told Cyclingnews that his first preference is to remain with Continuum Sport after it was confirmed earlier this week that title sponsor CCC would be pulling out of the sport at the end of the current campaign.

Trentin, who only signed for the team at the start of the year having moved from Mitchelton-Scott, believes that team boss Jim Ochowicz can find a replacement sponsor in the coming months and that the team must remain resolute and race together.
