Sam Bennett's future looks a step closer to being resolved, with Deceuninck-QuickStep reportedly closing in on signing the Bora-Hansgrohe sprinter after a drawn-out transfer saga.

The Irishman is the last major name still remaining on the transfer market for 2020, and he looked set to leave to Bora-Hansgrohe until reports emerged that he had signed an offer letter with the German team back in May.
