Stunning: Derek Gee requests contract termination with Israel, here’s who’s behind it

Plot twist in the transfer market: Derek Gee pushes Israel-Premier Tech to let him go already at the end of the season. In theory, according to the team, the Canadian has a contract until 2028, and both parties had been in contact to renew and adjust it to his recent performances.

Because of these tensions, Derek Gee has probably been left out of the Vuelta a España roster, where he was expected to be the team’s leader for the general classification. Behind these tensions, according to both Ciro Scognamiglio and Daniel Benson, is Ineos Grenadiers, who are said to already have a deal with the Canadian. According to reports this morning (before Israel’s official statement), only the formal announcement of the agreement was missing.

Here’s the team’s statement:

“Israel-Premier Tech was unexpectedly issued a notice of termination from lawyers representing Derek Gee on Friday, 9 August,” the statement from the team reads. Gee, who is under his contract with Israel-Premier Tech until 2028, having signed a five-year contract extension in 2023, had been engaged in discussions with team management to renegotiate the conditions of his current contract”.
