North annonced back in September 2020 that the Organization was focused on changing their roster from being Danish to a Nordic roster. Today the 21-year-old Denis “grux” Gutaj has been signed as the fith member of the active roster.
grux has played on minor teams, and is a relative unknown name. But according to the North management, there is big potential in the young Swede.
– I’ve studied him for some time. As he seemed very promising, we reached out and had him try to practice with us. Right away, it was evident that he has a lot of skill, but, at the same time, also is far from reaching his ceiling,” says the coach of North, Jimmy “Jumpy” Berndtsson.
– Playing in this team will help me stay consistent and learn new things, and I’m motivated more than ever to play. I believe in our future and the game style we will bring on our matches,” says Denis “grux” Gutaj to North’s homepage.
