If from a sporting point of view Juan Ayuso had a great 2024 season, with a victory over the Tour of the Basque Countrya second place to Tirreno-Adriatico and a 5th place in Tour of Romandy, rather, it was the extra-sporty side who took the upper hand in his second part of the season. Juan Ayuso didn't seem to like working for Tadej Pogacar on the Tour de France and he was at the heart of several rumors which announced his dissatisfaction within the formation UAE Team Emirates. However, the 22-year-old Spaniard will still be part of the Emirati team (with whom he is under contract until 2028, editor's note) and should aim for Giro in 2025.

Ayuso and Del Toro discovering the Giro?
Indeed, while Tadej Pogacar should focus on the Tour de France next year, Ayuso would have free rein to express themselves on the Giro. “In principle, I will be at the start of the Giro in 2025. This is the starting point for now, although plans can still change. I will wait until all the routes are known. You never know what will come out of it and maybe La Vuelta suits me better than the Giro. But participation in the Giro is the most likely… but until I have seen everything, I don't want to decide“, declared Juan Ayuso daily in spanish Mark a few weeks ago.
A trend confirmed by the Gazzetta dello Sportwhich also announces the presence of the Spaniard in Italy next May. But he would not be the only one to discover the Giro chez UAE Team Emiratessince Mexican crack Isaac Del Toro could also contest the Pink Race !
