Virtus.pro CEO: "YEKINDAR And I Are At the Final Stage Of Finalizing the Conditions Under Which He Will Part With the Club"

The head of Virtus.pro, Aram Karamanukyan, spoke about the fate of Mareks YEKINDAR Galinskis and how negotiations are going with ESL and BLAST regarding the right to play under the original name instead of Outsiders.

[About the details of the acquisition of the club]
There was a slight misunderstanding. The media asked us under which tag we would play: Virtus.pro or Outsiders. And we wrote that we only own the rights to the Virtus.pro brand, meaning that Outsiders is a name made up by the players, and this tag was therefore not part of the deal. Consequently, we can and will only act as Virtus.pro. However, some have taken it as if we only own the brand and nothing else. This, of course, is not true. All Virtus.pro assets are owned by us, including player contracts.

[On whether ESL and BLAST will be allowed to play under the name "Virtus.pro"]

I'm happy with Valve's decision in our favour. I would be stunned if the conclusion of the tournament operators contradicted this. However, in the current world realities, anything is possible.

Let me point out that we have been actively contacting ESL to discuss using the Virtus.pro tag in tournaments. We have provided all possible papers and are currently waiting for a response. But we haven't contacted BLAST yet, so we don't really understand how they will handle this issue.

[About the negotiations between the club and YEKINDAR]

At the moment, Virtus.pro and YEKINDAR are in the final stages of finalizing the conditions under which he will part ways with the club. For now, I can't add anything else. Please be patient.
Aram Karamanukyan, CEO of Virtus.pro

Aram Karamanukyan became the club's CEO on 16 September. On the same day, Virtus.pro was no longer listed as the main asset of the ESforce holding.
