Nairo Quintana will have no hesitation in committing his future to Movistar should the Spanish team offer him a new contract.
The Colombian rider has a deal until the end of 2019 with Movistar but has previously been linked with a move away from the team.

Quintana quashed those rumours at Movistar's pre-Tour de France media conference, however, insisting he is ready to extend his stay beyond next year.
"If something characterises me, it's that when I start something I finish it," he said.
"I've got a contract for another year and I hope to continue here, and if [team boss] Eusebio [Unzue] offers me a contract in the coming years I will continue with the team.
"I feel good here, relaxed and everything is good."
Quintana will share the leadership of Movistar at the Tour with Alejandro Valverde and Mikel Landa. That may be different to other teams at the Grand Tour, but Quintana is confident there will be no conflict of interest.
"We've always had these situations in the team," he added. "We've known how to work with it.
"It's been good [before] and I hope this year will be the same, I don't think there are going to be any problems, we have a strong team, and we hope to finish in Paris with the yellow jersey."
