Rye House have named their proposed line-up for the 2015 Premier League season – with World Under-21 Finalist Nikolaj Busk Jakobsen set to join the Rockets.
The 20-year-old Dane will make his UK debut and is joined by fellow countryman Kasper Lykke, who returns after a season on loan at Glasgow.
Promoter Len Silver said: “Nikolaj arrives with strong recommendations as one of Denmark’s brightest new talents, and his record at U-21 level speaks for itself. He will be living and travelling with Kasper next season.”
Steve Boxall and Luke Bowen are back from this year’s Rye team, joining the already-announced Edward Kennett and Jason Garrity with the septet to be completed by Tyson Nelson subject to visa approval.
Silver added: “I believe this team to be one of the best we have put to the track since our last League winning seven of 2007, and I am happy to report that every single rider agreed to join the Rockets almost before I had posed the question! Edward Kennett will be proud to lead this septet as captain, and I am proud to present them.”
