Another former World Champion has joined Swatt Club. After Gustav Wang, the 2021 time trial world champion among juniors, the Italian Continental team has announced the signing of Matteo Fiorin, a two-time gold medalist at the Junior World Championships on track in team pursuit, who, after a positive road season with Solme-Olmo-Arvedi, will wear the colors of Carlo Beretta's team next year.
Developed at Pool Cantù first and then at MBH Bank, Fiorin has distinguished himself in recent months both for the results achieved on track (where he won the overall classification in the Elimination World Cup and the continental title in the same discipline at the Under 23 Europeans in Cottbus) and for those achieved on the road.
Here, in recent months, the young Lombard prospect secured the GP Fiera della Possenta, the GP della Battaglia and the Corato stage at the Giro Next Gen, achievements that the 2005-born rider from Desio accompanied with other notable placements such as second places at the Trofeo Visentini and in the first stage of the Giro del Veneto.
Brother of Sara (since January this year a rider for Laboral Kutxa-Fundación Euskadi) and winner of nine overall medals on track between World Championships and Europeans reserved for juniors and Under 23, Fiorin will have the opportunity to compete in 2027 with a calendar that is both demanding and international as well as stimulating thanks to the status acquired during the last offseason by the passionate Brianza team which, in the season just concluded, competed in professional races such as Tour of Denmark, Coppa Agostoni, Giro del Veneto and Veneto Classic.
His arrival will allow the Italian team to be even more competitive in those races destined to conclude with a more or less compact group sprint and, in parallel, will allow Fiorin himself to test himself and grow in a context where there is no shortage of top-quality materials, serenity, freshness and willingness to be protagonists in any circumstance and against anyone.
