After having won the Tour of Hainan a few weeks ago, Julien Antomarchi stated his desire to find a new team for the coming season. Finally, he seems to have succeeded as he is reported to have signed a contract with Roubaix Lille Metropole.

Roubaix Lille Métropole have reinforced their team for 2015. According to reports from Velo101, the French continental team has signed a contract with Julien Antomarchi for the comng season. The Frenchman was without a team after his contract with La Pomme Marseille 13 was not renewed.

The signing of Antomarchi is an important one as he will be able to provide experience to the young riders and take important reslts as he did when he won the Tour of Hainan overall a few weeks ago. Along with Thomas Damuseau, he will be one of the leaders of Daniel Verbrackel's team.
