Danish Kasper Asgreen, 31 years old, has entered the transfer market, choosing to wear the jersey of Swiss team NSN after two seasons with EF Education-EasyPost. Signing a two-year contract starting in 2027, Asgreen is preparing for a new adventure, leaving behind a career that has already brought him considerable success.
A professional for ten years, Asgreen has accumulated an impressive tally of 14 victories. Among his most significant triumphs are the Tour of Flanders and the E3 Harelbeke, both conquered in 2021. Among his successes is also a stage victory at the 2023 Tour de France, raising his arms to the sky after the 18th stage. His latest victory dates back to 2025, when he triumphed on the 14th stage of the Giro d'Italia between Treviso and Nova Gorica.
With NSN, Asgreen has a clear objective: to aim for a stage victory at the Vuelta a España. In a press release, he stated: "The next step will be to try to complete the trilogy". Despite the focus on the Vuelta, Asgreen emphasized the importance of the Classics in his heart, saying: "That's where I made my entry into the world of important cycling and they are my favorite races." His experience in the most important competitions will be an added value for the team.
NSN's general manager, Kjell Carlström, expressed great enthusiasm for Asgreen's arrival: "Kasper is exactly the versatile rider we wanted to add to our team. We are convinced that he will have a significant impact, both as a leader and as a teammate." The addition of Asgreen to the squad not only enriches the roster, but also brings a strong fighting spirit, essential for facing the various challenges of the season.
Another important objective for Asgreen is the time trial at the World Championships. "In 2021 I missed the podium by just two seconds - he recalled - I still have an unfinished business and I would really like to win that medal one day." This ambition demonstrates the determination of the Danish cyclist to excel also in time trial competitions.
Kasper Asgreen is therefore preparing for a new era with NSN, bringing with him a wealth of experience and a desire to win that promises to make a difference in the coming seasons. With the start of 2027 on the horizon, cycling enthusiasts can expect great things from this talented Danish rider.
