NIP and Astralis in agreement over device transfer

Over the past few months, the future of Danish CSGO Prodigy Nicolai “dev1ce” Reedtz has been the talk of the town as fans started speculating whether he’d return to the active NIP roster or move on to look for opportunities with other organizations.

However, according to a recent report from Jaxon.gg, it appears that Device might be reuniting with his former roster soon enough.

The report states that Astralis and NIP have finally agreed on a €600,000 transfer price for Device after initial discussions between the two orgs failed due to NIP’s asking fee being too high for the Danish team.

Device has been an inactive member of the NIP roster for about ten months. The 27-year-old AWPer had cited burnout and fatigue as reasons behind his sick leave from the team.
