ZywOo extended contract with Vitality to 2024

Vitality has announced a contract extension with team sniper Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut. The new deal with the 20-year-old Frenchman, who is one of the top contenders for the 2020 World Player of the Year title, runs through 2024.

Herbaut's contract was extended back at the beginning of this year, but the press release about it wasn't issued until today, December 20, two days after Vitality's departure from the IEM Global Challenge 2020.
