“A couple of years ago I have chosen to link my future to Intermarché-Wanty because I was convinced that a professional environment with a family atmosphere was the best setting for me to develop myself and perform at my best. Ultimately, this proved to be the case, so I can't imagine pursuing my career anywhere else. Like the team, I grow year after year at the highest level while having fun. The goal is to continue my progression, especially in the classics, those races that once inspired me to start cycling. I also want to improve in my role in the sprint trains. I'm still young and aware that I can develop on several levels. The sports direction knows about these needs, and with the Intermarché-Wanty structure, all the necessary expertise is available to meet them."

"Since his first months as a trainee with our team in the summer of 2021 we've seen Dries De Pooter grow together with our team, a progression that fills us with pride. A significant milestone in his development was his participation in the Giro d'Italia this year, the first Grand Tour of his career. He gained valuable experience and increased his physical capabilities. That's why we're convinced he's ready to reach a higher level in 2025. He'll often receive an important role in our sprint trains this coming season. He's a great support in both the Flemish classics and races of the Ardennes type, his versatility is his greatest asset."
