The current OG CSGO Captain might soon transition to a new squad ahead of the 2022 pro season. 

According to a report from 1pv.fr, G2 Esports have got into extensive talks with Natus Vincere over the sale of their Counter Strike prodigy, Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov while they also seem to have getting themselves a new in-game leader to lead the next iteration of the roster. They have reportedly opened up negotiations with OG CS:GO which will see Aleksi “Aleksib” Virolainen switch to G2 Esports.

After parting ways with Damien “⁠maLeK⁠” Marcel around in the middle of November, we might soon see some changes transitioning within the G2 Esports squad who are to revamp with a new sniper and an In-game leader. Among the reports is m0NESY who was brought aboard by Natus Vincere in January 2020 as a part of their academy roster while being the youngest  person on the roster back then. Ever since, the former has taken everyone by storm and has proved to be a true contender for future opportunities. Na’Vi recently decided to accept offers for the 16 year-old sniper and has already attracted interest from G2 Esports. 

In addition, Aleksib from OG Counter Strike has also been approached by G2 Esports for their IGL Spot and as reported, the Dota 2 giants won’t be giving up on their leader this easily. Under Aleksib, OG have secured a plethora of top table finishes but have never won a championship.
