Team CSC signed Swede Gustav Larsson for 2008. Larrson made the top ten in the Deutschland Tour, Tour de Luxembourg and Tour Down Under. He also finished third in the Eneco Tour. Team manager Bjarne Riis highlighted the soon-to-be former Unibet rider's strong time trialling and climbing skills.

"Of course I'm very happy with the contract with Team CSC and I look at it as a fantastic opportunity for me to develop as a rider. Looking from a distance in seems to be a well organized team with a big bunch of impressive riders. At the same time it looks like a team where everyone is working for a common goal and they're still able to make results for themselves as well. I am looking forward to meeting the entire team next week in Norway," said Larsson to team-csc.com.
