Eisel probably won't be at OPQS (or whatever they are set to be called) next year. Leferve is set to reduce the team by 3 riders, in preparation for the new UCI limit of 22 riders per team by the start of the 2017 season, and he's looking to bring in some young riders who can climb, and is under pressure from Bakala to bring in more Czech riders. Eisel doesn't fit that brief. So unless they are set to dismantle some of the existing sprint train (and Petacchi and Steegmans would be prime candidates to leave) I doubt they'll have room.
And, as Oliver said, Cavendish was disappointed when Eisel chose to stay at Sky in 2013.
