Rygte: NiP og Astralis er blevet enige om at flytte Device til en dansk klub for $600.000

One of the biggest transfers of the year is brewing in CSGO. According to the Jaxon.gg portal, the NiP and Astralis clubs have agreed on the transfer of Device to the standard organization.

Sources close to the deal say the return transfer could be worth $600,000. Rumors about negotiations between NiP and Astralis were already in mid-September of this year.

Earlier it was reported that NiP is actively looking for a new home for the star sniper. Initially, information floated on the net about NiP's desire to sell the Dane for $1,000,000, close to the amount of Nikolai's initial transfer to the camp of the Swedish team.

device joined Ninjas in Pajamas in April 2021, thus becoming one of the most expensive transfers in the history of the discipline. At the time, Ninjas in Pajamas' chief executive called the deal "one of the largest in the history of esports", but apparently it did not bear fruit.

As part of the NiP device, it did not even manage to come close to the performance that it showed in the “native harbour”. device with Astralis has 4 major trophies, as well as many victories in smaller tournaments.

From the words of people familiar with the situation around the device transition, if it happens, then not before the end of the Rio Major. According to Valve rules, teams cannot change their rosters between RMR tournaments and Majors, and therefore Nikolay will sit on the bench, where he has been since December 2021, until at least November 13, 2022.
