The Dutchman Brian van Goethem made the step to the World Tour when he signed for Lotto Soudal in 2019. Brian is an excellent helper, especially during the Flemish Classics. He took two solo victories in the GP Briek Schotte, in 2015 and 2016. He is not a rider who wins a lot but you can always count on him. He impressed by going along in the breakaway of Gent-Wevelgem 2018 and then finishing nineteenth.
