Samuel Fernández will race as a professional with the Caja Rural-Seguros RGA team, rounding off a career always linked to the MMR brand.
The Asturian, who has been linked to the MMR brand since his cadet category in the MMR Samuel Sánchez Academy, completes, in an outstanding way, the cycle of development and adaptation and manages to take the step to professionalism with Caja Rural Seguros-RGA in his second year as U23 rider.
Samu becomes the first cyclist to reach the professional ranks with the MMR brand.
The beginning of his short career in the amateur field was marked by a serious accident just before starting his career in the category, after months of recovery and a lot of rehabilitation he achieved his first victory in one of the races of the Lehendakari Tournament. To round off a difficult season, he won the prestigious Ronde l'Isard at the mythical summit of La Gavarnie.
