Another contract extension has been confirmed by Winspace Orange Seal. Following Karolina Perekitko and Kiara Lylyk, it’s now Aurela Nerlo’s turn to renew her deal with the French ProTeam. With the addition of newcomer Justine Gegu, this makes four riders already confirmed for the 2026 roster.

The 27-year-old Polish rider has made a strong impact in the early part of the 2025 season. She delivered WOS’s first-ever podium in the Women’s WorldTour by finishing second at the Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, after a long breakaway. Known for her aggressive racing style, Aurela is never afraid to go on the attack—as seen again at this year’s edition of Paris-Roubaix Femmes avec Zwift.

Aurela Nerlo : "I’m very happy to stay with Winspace Orange Seal ! Team believe in me, give me so much support and strength to be only better. I spread my wings with this team and achieved the best result in my cycling carrier. I know that I can do more, shine and learn a lot with Winspace and these people around".

Jean-Christophe Barbotin, General Manager of WOS : "Aurela has made real progress over the past two years. It was important for us to secure her future. From our side, we’re not only keeping a strong teammate, but also a specialist and an ambassador for the Northern Classics. She has that drive to race at the front, she is a true fighter. We’re very happy to re-sign her. Keeping this kind of athlete in our roster really matters to us".
