French president Emmanuel Macron is deeply involved in Paul Seixas contract renewal with Decathlon and spoke directly with the rider. Sivakov is rumoured to be joining the team next year with a 2M€ salary eurosport.es/ciclismo/infor…

Do not underestimate how much more expensive Paul Seixas is for a French team, compared to non-French teams like UAE Team Emirates, INEOS-TotalEnergies or Visma-Lease a Bike. Let's say Paul Seixas wants €4M on his bank account... French law requires riders to be employed, and to receive a ~€4M net salary, Decathlon CMA-CGM would have to pay Paul Seixas a gross salary of ~€5-7M, employer contributions of ~€2M, and an image rights payment of ~€1M. That is a total cost of ~€8-10M for Decathlon-CMA CGM. If Paul Seixas moves to Andorra and signs with a non-French team as a self-employed entity, the team only has to pay him ~€4.5M for Seixas to have €4M on his bank account. This means non-French teams can offer significantly more net pay for Seixas than Decathlon-CMA CGM, and still spend less in total. 💸
