News in brief: Alejandro Valverde has extended his contract with his current employer Movistar for a further two years until 2019. The 36-year-old Spaniard has thus clearly denied any rumors about the end of his career in 2017. The 2009 Vuelta winner has been driving for the Spanish team for more than ten years.
The fact that Alejandro Valverde is still alive at the age of 36 is shown by the Spaniard this year with a victory in the Walloon Arrow and a podium finish in the Giro. After Valverde had already extended his expiring contract with Movistar until the end of the 2017 season in the spring, rumors had recently surfaced that his career would soon end. However, he is now decisively countering this and has extended his contract with Movistar until 2019.
