Roberto Capello promoted to the first team Roberto Capello has been promoted from the EF Education - Aevolo development team to the EF Education - EasyPost first team. The announcement was made on November 3, 2026: for the rider, this is an internal step within the same sporting group, not a team change. The promotion rewards Capello's path in the development squad, from which he steps up to face the 2027 season with the WorldTour team. Capello's 2026 In the races featured on our website, Capello's best 2026 result is 4th at the National Road Championships - Italy (ITT) - Men Under 23 Individual Time Trial on October 24, 2026. In the same season he finished 9th at the UEC Road European Championships - Men Under 23 Individual Time Trial and 29th in the Under 23 road race at the same European Championships. Overall, according to our website's data, he collected 3 top-50 placings. His 4th place at the Italian Under 23 time trial championships on October 24, 2026, is Capello's best result among those featured on our website. The transfer market of the two teams EF Education - EasyPost, the team welcoming Capello, has also announced for 2027 the arrivals of Emil Herzog, Gavin Hlady, Iván Ramiro Sosa, Nicolas Milesi, Tao Geoghegan Hart, Tobias Bayer and Tomos Pattinson, along with five departures: James Shaw, Markel Beloki, Michael Valgren, Mikkel Frølich Honoré and Richard Carapaz. The EF Education - Aevolo development team records, besides Capello's promotion, the departures of Gavin Hlady, Joshua Golliker and Tomos Pattinson, with no announced arrivals. Gavin Hlady and Tomos Pattinson are also leaving the EF Education - Aevolo development team: both are among the new arrivals announced by EF Education - EasyPost for 2027. The first team's market movement is therefore broader than the development squad's: seven arrivals and five departures for EF Education - EasyPost, three departures and no arrivals for EF Education - Aevolo, confirming a generational turnover that also goes through Capello's promotion.
