Mind my ignorance, but isn't that going backwards? He's going to play second fiddle, no matter the discipline. Perhaps he can convince MvdP to come do CTCT! I'd fly down to CPT just to see that.

I see Mitchleton-Scott has not been granted a WT license (yet), and still in review with the UCI, while Cofidis and ICA have been granted theirs.

UCI confirms men’s and women’s WorldTour teams for 2020

 

December 10, 2019

Boels-Dolmans not issued a WorldTour license due to sponsorship difficulties, Mitchelton-Scott's application still under review.

 

The UCI confirmed the teams for the 2020 WorldTour on both the men’s and women’s side of the sport, Tuesday.

 

The governing body released a statement listing 18 men’s teams and seven women’s teams that were granted WorldTour licenses for 2020 and ongoing years.

 

As expected, Israel Cycling Academy and Cofidis are new additions to the list of men’s WorldTour teams. The Israeli team is born from the merger between Katusha-Alpecin and Israel Cycling Academy.

 

Missing from both lists is Mitchelton-Scott. The UCI is still in the process of reviewing the Australian team’s application and will confirm their status as soon as possible. Boels-Dolmans is absent from the list of women’s WorldTour teams as it could not provide a financial guarantee given its current long-term sponsorship crisis.

 

2020 will see the re-branding of the second tier of men’s racing to ProSeries as part of UCI’s wave of UCI reforms. ProSeries teams will be titled ProTeam. Next year also marks the launch of the new-tiered system of women’s racing into WorldTour and Continental teams.

 

As confirmed in the UCI’s provisional list of teams for 2020, men’s ProTeam squad Total Direct Energie will be given wildcard invites to grand tours and classics in 2020. Similarly, Circus–Wanty Gobert (formerly Wanty Gobert-Tormans) will receive invites to classics races.

Out of all the teams, they are one of the better performing teams. Strange.

That's why I chose INEOS suggests he had more than one offer. 

Pretty sure Di Data was begging him with the lure of BMC

More chance coming to ride the DC, not in middle of classics campaign.

am guessing it's paperwork. 

listen to matt white on a podcast recently and no talk of issues, as the owner is almost happy to self fund it still.

 

looks like Impey has signed till 2021 too
