"We are very excited to have signed Danny. He burst on to the
scene at an early age and is one of the youngest riders to have
ever started the Tour de France," Team Sky manager Dave
Brailsford said.
"At 22 he's still young and this change in environment will
allow him to continue his development."
Van Poppel won the 12th stage of the Vuelta as well as two
stages of the Tour de Wallonie this season.
