Sentinels’ Rebuilding Process Starts as ShahZaM’s Contract Nears Expiration and New Coaches Join

North American Organization Sentinels Set to Add Coaches to VALORANT Team

North American esports organization Sentinels is in negotiations to bring in two experienced coaches for their VALORANT team, according to sources. The deals are close to being finalized and will be announced by once completed. However, there may be some changes to the team’s roster, as the contract of in-game leader Shahzeb “ShahZaM” Khan is set to expire soon.

Changes to the Roster and the Future of ShahZaM

The addition of the new coaches will likely lead to discussions about the team’s composition, and ShahZaM might not be part of those conversations. The organization is actively looking for a new in-game leader, and details will be shared once a deal has been reached. ShahZaM’s contract, on the other hand, is coming to an end at the close of the year. This means he will enter unrestricted free agency, giving him the freedom to join another team without any buyout requirements. It is possible that both ShahZaM and TenZ, another player on the team, could leave Sentinels next year.

Market Quiet for Some, Active for Others

While some organizations like Evil Geniuses have been relatively quiet in the esports market, Sentinels is actively working on rebuilding its team. On the other hand, Cloud9 and 100 Thieves have already made moves to solidify their rosters. Cloud9 is finalizing a deal to acquire OpTic Gaming’s Jaccob “yay” Whiteaker, while 100 Thieves is set to sign Matthew “Cryo” Panganiban from XSET, as reported by .

Sentinels’ Future in the Americas International League

Sentinels will be competing in the Americas international league next year, alongside other major esports organizations. The league will commence in February with a three-week tournament in São Paulo, Brazil. All 30 teams from across the three leagues will participate in this exciting event.
