Virtus.pro renew players' contracts

Virtus.pro announce that the core CS:GO roster have all  signed four year contracts with the organisation.

The Russian organization has announced via a Facebook post that they will continue providing a home for the Polish roster until the end of 2020. The post suggests the renewed contracts are "the largest in the history of eSports in terms of both duration and total contract value." 

Filip "NEO" Kubski and his team have been playing under Virtus.pro since January 2014 and won numerous tournaments during this time, including ESL Major Series: Katowice 2014. This victory at Katowice back in 2014 made them one of the few teams that lifted a major trophy.

Virtus.pro, currently ranked 7th on our team rankings, will be present at the ELEAGUE Major as Legends and will try to add another trophy to their cabinet.

Virtus.pro's General Manager, Roman Dvoryankin expressed his feelings regarding the renewal:

I am very glad to announce that our CS:GO roster has signed a new groundbreaking agreement with the organization. For the next four years the best team in the world will continue playing for our organization, and I am sure we going to have a lot of victories and pleasant moments as well as a lot of work to do. I would like to thank the guys for their professional approach to the negotiations. I admit they were quite difficult, but in the end we managed to reach a win-win solution. This kind of agreements are yet another step towards implementing more understandable, I would even say civilized, eSports rules. Organizations and players work together for their fans. It is especially pleasant to us that the legendary players from the well-known "Golden Five" and their younger partners will keep playing for Virtus.pro until the end of 2020.”

The renewal means Virtus.pro will continue fielding following squad:

Filip "NEO" Kubski
Wiktor "TaZ" Wojtas
 Jaros?aw "pashaBiceps" Jarz?bkowski
Janusz "Snax" Pogorzelski
 Pawe? "byali" Bieli?ski
