A third team in three seasons
Florian Sénéchal is on the move again. According to L’Équipe, the 33-year-old Frenchman will ride for Unibet Rose Rockets in 2027, with an official announcement possible before the end of the week.
The deal would end a short stay at Alpecin Premier Tech. Sénéchal signed there for the 2026 season only, a one-year contract that followed the collapse of Arkéa B&B Hotels, his previous team. The length of his new contract has not been disclosed.

What he brings to the Rockets
Sénéchal’s value lies on the cobbles and short climbs of the northern classics. This season alone he lined up for Gent-Wevelgem, Dwars door Vlaanderen, the Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix with Alpecin, the kind of spring programme where experience counts as much as raw power.
That profile fits a squad still building up its roster. L’Équipe adds that Unibet Rose Rockets, which races on a French licence, is still scanning the transfer market for further reinforcements before next season.
For a rider in his thirties who has just spent a season on a one-year deal, a new contract is no small thing. Once the Rockets make it official, Sénéchal will have landed on his feet again.
