‘I still need some time to analyse what I really want’ - Tadej Pogačar to return to the UAE Tour, but 2027 race calendar still undecided with Tour de France the main target

Tadej Pogačar has already confirmed his main ambitions for the 2027 race season; a sixth Tour de France title, a fourth world title and a shot at redemption at the Vuelta a España. In the coming weeks, alongside the management team at UAE Team Emirates-XRG , his race calendar leading up to those objectives will be finalised. According to the Slovenian, on the cards is a return to the UAE Tour, a race he won in 2021, 2024 and 2025. He skipped the race of his team’s homeland in 2026 and began his season at Strade Bianche.
