The announcement became official on 29 September 2026. The Pole, second at the world championships in Montreal on Saturday, winner of the 2024 Tour de France Femmes and of this year’s Mont Ventoux stage, will ride for Lidl-Trek from next season.
“The decision to change environment was not easy until I spoke with Lidl-Trek, where I felt straight away that the team had a plan for me and confidence in my abilities,” she told RTBF. To Sporza she added: “If we can join forces, we will achieve beautiful things together.”
Myriam opened her folder. She read the file in order.
Firstly. Nine seasons in the same structure, under several names. I note. At the town hall, one keeps the same register number when moving within the same street. Secondly. Contract until the end of 2028, effective next season. Compliant. Thirdly. A plan is mentioned. It is not attached. An unattached plan, in my department, is a sworn statement. I accept it. I request the attachment. Fourthly. Beautiful things. The rulebook does not provide for beautiful things, it provides for a classification. She already has one. Second at the world championships, first at the Tour in 2024, the Flèche Wallonne. I note. I do not comment.
At Lidl-Trek, Niewiadoma will join, among others, the Belgians Fleur Moors and Margot Vanpachtenbeke.
It’s true, we checked: Sporza.
