Team Vitality is one step to signing Karel “Twisten” AÅ¡enbrener, who is currently an inactive member of BIG, Dexerto reported citing its sources.
According to the outlet, negotiations between Vitality and BIG are in the advanced stage and the deal will be expected soon.
Vitality, as a Riot games partner team, should submit six players and a head coach for VCT 2023 until October 15.
18-year-old Twisten has been playing with BIG since September 2021.
The reason for the transfer is that BIG did not join the Valorant partnership program. After that, all teammates reported that they will explore their options for 2023.
