00:01Here's the new face of Never Say Never.

00:04Star cyclist Binyam Girmay from Eritrea was hired as lead rider for the Never Say Never cycling team,

00:10which was formerly known as Israel Premier Tech.

00:14The team rebranded after saying that it wanted to move away from its Israeli identity.

00:20When I was a kid I followed football and to see Zavi in front of us, it's a big pleasure and thank you for coming.

00:27And I think, yeah, for me, like I said, I already stayed for five years with Inter Marcia 1T.

00:34So it's a new chapter, especially with this team.

00:39I see myself really great opportunity.

00:42I'm here also to win a bike race.

00:46And this team, I think this is the team that's going to help me to improve and to race for challenge.

00:52We Spaniards have had great stars in the world of cycling.

00:59It's been a passion of mine besides football, which has been the thing I've done best during my whole life.

01:07But my link with cycling has always been very strong.

01:12And I am delighted with this new step we are taking now.

01:17I look forward to enjoying this even more so as a part of it.

01:23The team is now set to move to Spain and be based in the city of Girona, a hub for professional cyclists.

01:39Thank you very much.

01:40Thank you very much.
