Ginia Caluori will join Movistar Team for the 2027 and 2028 seasons, giving the Spanish squad another young rider with long-term development potential.
Movistar confirmed the signing with a short announcement, describing the Swiss rider as a talent with versatility and future value for the team. The move continues the squad’s focus on building depth around emerging riders while maintaining a clear pathway for young athletes to develop at Women’s WorldTour level.
Caluori signs through 2028
Movistar announced Caluori’s arrival with a message of welcome, saying: “Talent, versatility and future for our team. Ginia Caluori joins Movistar Team for the 2027 and 2028 seasons. Welcome to your new home.”
The wording gives a useful indication of how Movistar view the signing. Caluori is not being presented as a short-term results fix, but as a rider whose qualities can be developed across the next phase of the team’s project.
A two-year contract also gives her time to adapt. Moving into a new team structure, particularly at this level, is not only about race days. It means learning systems, finding a role within the squad and building trust with teammates and staff across different types of races.
Versatility gives Movistar options
The emphasis on versatility is important. Movistar have often valued riders who can contribute across several race situations rather than being limited to one narrow speciality. That approach was already visible in the team’s wider 2026 direction, with the squad combining established leaders with younger riders still moving through the development curve.
For Caluori, that should mean opportunities to develop in a range of roles, from support work in harder one-day races to stage-race duties and chances on days where the team wants to race aggressively. Young riders who can position well, survive selective terrain and still work for others are increasingly valuable in women’s cycling.
For Movistar, Caluori offers a flexible profile rather than a narrow specialism, which should make her useful across one-day races, stage-race support roles and opportunistic days where the team wants to race aggressively.
Another move for Movistar’s future
The signing fits into Movistar’s broader direction. The team has continued to invest in young talent, adding riders who can grow within the structure rather than only relying on established names.
That future-facing approach has been visible through riders such as Cat Ferguson and Paula Ostiz, both of whom have given Movistar clear upside alongside more experienced leaders. Caluori’s arrival for 2027 adds another piece to that longer-term group.
For Caluori, the move represents a chance to step into a team with clear identity and a strong international calendar. For Movistar, it adds another rider to the group that will shape the squad beyond the current cycle.
Her arrival will not be immediate, with the deal beginning in 2027, but the message is already clear: Movistar see Caluori as a rider with the range and potential to become part of the team’s future.
