Ninjas in Pajamas allowed device to search for a new team
According to the Jaxon portal, the Swedish eSports organization Ninjas in Pajamas allowed device to look for a new team. Joining the team in April last year, the 26-year-old Dane played only half of the season before he retired, citing mental health issues.
device has reportedly explored several options outside of its current team over the past months. The Danish sniper held preliminary talks with several teams in an attempt to find a new home.
The news follows the player's seven-month inactivity as he himself took the bench at the end of 2021, citing burnout and fatigue as the main reasons for his absence.
device joined Ninjas in Pajamas in April 2021, thus becoming one of the most expensive transfers in the history of the discipline. According to a number of sources, the transfer amounted to $1,000,000, and the chief executive of Ninjas in Pajamas called the deal "one of the largest in the history of esports."
Nevertheless, in eight months, the 26-year-old Dane helped the team win BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2021 and Intel Extreme Masters XVI - Fall: Europe, as well as reach the finals of Flashpoint Season 3. Nevertheless, in the course of performances at Intel Extreme Masters XVI - Winter the sniper left the starting lineup to announce his indefinite retirement from the stage at the end.
Since then, device has not appeared as part of Ninjas in Pajamas, nor has he made any comments regarding his future. Well, quite recently, the Dane didn't even get into his team's roster for ESL Pro League Season 16, thus clearly delineating his plans to leave the organization.
The current CS:GO Ninjas in Pajamas roster is as follows:
- REZ
- Plopski
- hampus
- es3tag
- Brollan
- djL (coach)
