Nikolai Petrossian, CEO of Virtus.pro:

"Our fans have likely noticed the large number of new players and rosters we have signed in the past few days. All of this is part of our global strategy for club development.

Having outlined our plans for EA Sports FC, we quickly concluded that Robert and Daniil would be the best candidates for our lineup. As the competitive season nears its end, we are entering the discipline without unnecessary pressure to assess the state of the scene from within and test some of our hypotheses."

We will announce our plans for participation in upcoming tournaments later. Stay tuned for our announcements!
