forZe reportedly set $1.5 million buyout for Na\u2019Vi CSGO target Dreamhack\/ForZeNatus Vincere has reportedly had to turn their attention to a different CS:GO signing after being quoted an absurd price tag from forZe for Evgeniy \u2018FL1T\u2019 Lebedev, according to NeL of 1PV. Even though their roster holds, arguably, the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive player in the world, Na\u2019Vi have been unable to break through the stranglehold at the top of the rankings and dominate tournaments. After much speculation, the team finally parted ways with Danylo \u2018Zeus\u2019 Teslenko back in September, adding former star Ladislav \u2018GuardiaN\u2019 Kov\u00e1cs to their ranks. Yet, the reunion of Guardian and s1mple hasn\u2019t quite worked as planned and now the former FaZe Clan star is seemingly set to be replaced, after reports claimed he had been replaced by Na\u2019Vi Juniors player Rodion \u2018fear\u2019 Smyk in practice. However, it appears as if fear won\u2019t be a permanent addition after the organization has reportedly been in the market to pick up a player from a rival CIS squad. According to French insider NeL, Na\u2019Vi had turned their attention to forZe\u2019s 21-year-old FL1T, but had been told his full buyout price was somewhere north of 1.5 million dollars. \u201cNa\u2019Vi dropped off and is looking into other options now,\u201d NeL tweeted. \u201cWon\u2019t be a player for forZe nor Gambit for sure.\u201d Na’Vi wanted FL1T but forZe wouldn’t let him go unless Na’Vi pays full buyout: more than 1.5M dollars. Na’Vi dropped off and is looking into other options now. Won’t be a player for forZe nor Gambit for sure. Crazy CIS orgs. \u2014 neL (@neLendirekt) January 18, 2020 Disputing the tweet, the forZe Twitter account fired back with a handful of tweets of their own \u2013 responding directly to NeL with a gif of Huell from Breaking Bad taking a nap on a bed of cash. They followed that up by issuing a TwitLonger statement on the matter, claiming that Na\u2019Vi had contacted them about a transfer but \u201cthere were no offers made and no amount named\u201d and they were looking to \u201cstop any speculation and conjecture.\u201d Even though CS:GO insiders like NeL have been perfectly sound with their information in the past, teams do dispute their claims \u2013 even if the insider\u2019s claims come true eventually. It remains to be seen what Na\u2019Vi will do to reshape their roster as they could very well dip into their junior team but it appears as if they do want a player with a bit more experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
