G2 Esports VALORANT captain Jacob valyn Batio may continue his career with Mexican organization LYON, according to Sheep Esports. Sources indicate that the sides have reached an oral agreement, though the move is contingent on whether the club secures a partner slot in the VCT Americas franchise league for the upcoming season.
If LYON fails to secure a spot among the eight partner teams, the agreement will be canceled, and the player will enter free agency to look for a new team. The Mexican organization reportedly intends to build a new roster centered around Latin American players, with valyn once again stepping into the captain role.
This development follows G2 Esports decision to refresh their roster by bringing in Eduardo Sato Nagahama and Francisco kiNng Aravena as replacements for the American player. During his three-season tenure with G2, valyn captured four regional titles and earned recognition as the IGL of the year, while LYON competed in VCL Latin America North during the previous season.
