Vitality director: "apEX is not for sale"

Vitality's Esports Director Anne Banschbach has denied the rumor that the French club's co-founder is allegedly planning to sell Dan "apEX" Madesclaire. Banschbach stated via her X social media account that the team's IGL is not for sale.

Seeing as misunderstandings can happen on the internet, let me be very clear: apEX, our captain, is not for sale. The full team is focused on the Major. Let's win this shit.

Madesclaire has been representing Vitality since 2018. The player's current contract with the club will be valid until the end of 2026. The Frenchman's average rating over the past three months is 0.88 (in 39 maps). Over the course of his career as a Counter-Strike 2 pro player, apEX has earned $1.6 million in prize money.

Note that Vitality finished Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 Europe RMR A with a 3:0 record. The squad managed to defeat such opponents as GamerLegion, BetBoom Team, and FaZe. Thus, the roster secured a ticket to the Elimination Stage of the upcoming Shanghai Counter-Strike 2 Major.
