A transfer seems to be on the cards with the promising AWPer sliding into the team sheet for the first event this year.

It has been reported for nearly two weeks now that Ninjas in Pyjamas are looking to sign Daniil “headtr1ck⁠” Valitov from NAVI Junior.

Is this the new NIP AWPer?

A confirmation of the transfer hasn’t hit the news yet, however, today Dexerto can reveal that the Swedes have registered the 18-year-old AWPer on the lineup for the upcoming BLAST Premier Spring Groups later this January.

Something that heavily implies that a deal between NIP and NAVI has been made for the promising sniper. On the team, he will replace Patrick “es3tag” Hansen who got benched in December with this move also making room for Fredrik “REZ” Sterner to return to his previous role as a rifler.

Linus “nilo” Bergman and Max “maxster” Jansson, two talents from Young Ninjas (NIP’s academy team), are also on NIP’s team sheet for BLAST Spring Groups, Dexerto reports in their article.

NIP is set to field the following lineup at BLAST Spring Groups

Fredrik “⁠REZ⁠” Sterner

Hampus “⁠hampus⁠” Poser

Ludvig “⁠Brollan⁠” Brolin

Aleksi “⁠Aleksib⁠” Virolainen

Daniil “⁠headtr1ck⁠” Valitov

Linus “nilo” Bergman

Max “maxster” Jansson
