Esports organization Natus Vincere (NAVI) may be considering changes to its primary Counter-Strike 2 lineup, potentially replacing players Justinas “jL” Lekavičius and Ivan “iM” Mihai. According to French insider Sébastien “krL” Perez, who shared this information during a Twitch broadcast, one of the potential new additions could be a player from Natus Vincere Junior.
The insider specifically mentioned Drin “Makazze” Shaqiri from NAVI`s academy team as a possible candidate for the main roster. However, Perez did not provide details on who the second potential replacement might be. As of the time of this report, the management of Natus Vincere has not issued any official statement regarding this rumor.
“jL” and “iM” joined NAVI in June 2023. During their time with the team, they have been part of significant victories, including winning the PGL Major Copenhagen 2024, IEM Rio 2024, ESL Pro League Season 20, and the Esports World Cup 2024 in CS2. There is currently no information available regarding where Lekavičius and Mihai might continue their competitive careers should they depart from the Ukrainian organization.
