Adam Friberg to continue his CS:GO career after exiting NiP

The “king of banana” break from Counter-Strike: Global Offensive competition is coming to a close, and the former Ninjas in Pyjamas player is now hoping to return from free agency amidst international roster shuffle rumors.

The Swedish player Adam Friberg was replaced with Fredrik “REZ” Sterner last June on Ninjas in Pyjamas, and the team had enjoyed a revitalizing win at DreamHack Valencia and a surprising playoff run at ESL One Cologne. Meanwhile, the former star joined ESL’s talent lineup as an analyst for the Cologne event. Now, After a brief recess from CS:GO, Friberg thinks he’s ready to come back into the limelight.

“I still feel the hunger and will to keep on playing CS:GO at the top level, put in those extra hours, [and] be able to lift a trophy again,” he said on Twitter.

NiP has finished releasing the player from his contract after a four year journey with the organization, making him a free agent for any team to pick him up. With the vast amount of rumors regarding roster changes, Friberg could join some international team because of his status and history. He could stay in Sweden to continue representing his country, or he could go international for the first time with hopes of making it big in Europe or even North America.

The player is not forgetting about his past, saying he will always have a spot in his heart for NiP.
