The team emphasizes that his focus is on a full recovery, with the aim of returning to training and competition later this season. It is a routine treatment that is successfully performed with active athletes.

Behrens: “I’m very grateful to the team and the medical staff for their guidance and support in the last days and weeks. It’s a difficult climb right now, but I will be attacking my recovery with the same focus I bring to every race. While it’s tough to be out of competition and not able to race with my teammates, I’m committed to the process so I can return even stronger. I can’t wait to get back in the peloton, start pinning on a number again and show the team what I can do.”
