Rumors: bonkar will lead the lineup of Oxygen Esports

According to insider George Geddes, the North American esports organization Oxygen Esports is preparing to make changes to its VALORANT coaching staff. As a result, Juv3nile will leave the post of head coach of the team, while bonkar, the current captain of the Bonk team, will take his place.

It is reported that bonkar himself is ready to retire as a professional player in order to move to the position of head coach of Oxygen Esports and try his hand at a new role.

Juv3nile took over the roster of Oxygen Esports at the end of last year. In a few months, the American specialist helped the team reach the Knights Arena Freezeout semi-finals, as well as qualify for VALORANT Challengers 2023: North America Split 1.

In turn, bonkar intends to end his three-year career as a professional player. The 27-year-old Swede managed to play for such teams as Ninjas in Pajamas, Guild Esports, Tundra Esports, Team Finest and Bonk. Here he managed to win VALORANT Champions Tour 2021: Europe Stage 1 Challengers 3, and also get into the top three at VALORANT Champions Tour 2021: Europe Stage 1 Masters, VALORANT Champions Tour 2021: Europe Stage 2 Challengers 1, VALORANT Champions Tour 2021: Europe Stage 3 Challengers 1, VALORANT Regional Leagues 2022 Northern Europe: Polaris Stage 2 and Valorant Regional League France: Revolution - Coupe De France 2022.

It is expected that the Swede will take on the duties of the head coach of Oxygen Esports right during the group stage of VALORANT Challengers 2023: North America Split 1. The North American team is currently in fourth place in Group A, having a victory over Shopify Rebellion (2:1)) and defeated by BreakThru (0:2).
