A switch of big-name domestiques has been confirmed as Pavel Sivakov will leave Tadej Pogačar's UAE Team Emirates-XRG and spend the next three seasons with Paul Seixas' Decathlon CMA CGM.

The 29-year-old Frenchman has been an important ally for Pogačar in three seasons he has spent at UAE, forming part of the support cast for his Tour de France victories in 2024 and 2025, and linking up with him at this year's Vuelta a España until the Slovenian's early exit.
