Magnus Backstedt is appointed as the head Sports Director for the Human Powered Health Women's WorldTour team, effective in 2026. The team continues to receive support from its title sponsor for two more years and aims to rank among the top five teams in the world. Backstedt, currently with Cofidis, is excited about guiding the team as it seeks to secure a new three-year WorldTour licence. With a current ranking of 15th and competition from other teams, the team focuses on strengthening its position ahead of the 2025 season's end.
This is a growing project, and that is what excites me. Now is the perfect time for me to come in and help guide the team towards where it wants to be.
I've always kept a close eye on the team since that point. When Kenny said that he wants the team aiming for the top five in the world ranking, he had me hooked.
We are proud to have Magnus join our team. He brings huge experience, both as a former champion and as a proven leader in women's teams at the top of the sport.
With the renewed support of Human Powered Health, we move towards our goal of becoming a top-ranked team by 2028.
