Viktor "vuggo" Jendeby new Team Manager of fnatic CS:GO

Viktor "vuggo" Jendeby, fnatic's ex-CS:GO coach will transition to the Team Manager role.

Fnatic announced on Facebook that the CS:GO team's coach, Viktor "vuggo" Jendeby will leave the coaching role, instead taking up the Team Manager's job. Replacing Jendeby will be Jimmy "Jumpy" Berndtsson, a former Counter-Strike 1.6 professional player with an extensive coaching career. 

The Swedish organisation's CS:GO component has been going through drastic changes with the recent departure of Jesper "JW" Wecksell, Robin "flusha" Ronnquist and Freddy "krimz" Johansson to be replaced by John "wenton" Eriksson, Simon "twist" Eliasson and Jonas "lekr0" Olofsson. A large portion of it has been overhauled with only Olof "olofmeister" Kajbjer remaining from the orignal Fnatic roster.

Viktor "vuggo" Jendeby expressed:

At the speed of eSports growth, it is nothing but natural to expand the number of persons to work with and behind a top CS-team. For me to take a step back and make room for Jimmy as Head Coach feels natural. He has many years of experience in the field and will be a great addition to our team. I’m looking forward to working with him and the new team with different duties and challenges ahead.

Jimmy "Jumpy" Berndtsson, now Fnatic's Head Coach, said:

I'm excited to be working with such talented players and be a part of one of the most successful organisations in eSports. I think we can do some really good things together.
