Thug addresses rumors about Goblin’s departure 

Since Goblin was benched in the Battlegrounds Mobile India Masters Series (BGMS) Season 2, rumors about Goblin's future with Team SouL started circulating in the community. The organization's sudden move to bench its star player had fans and followers wondering whether this was the end of Goblin's time with the team.

In a live stream, one of Thug's viewers recently asked him whether the rumors surrounding Goblin's departure were true. In response, Thug categorically denied the rumors and provided details on the issue and said, “Goblin is not going to leave Team Soul at least for the next 8-9 months, unless we go for a complete roster reshuffle. Team Soul’s current lineup is performing well and the fans should let them continue for now. Goblin has our full support, even when the game was banned last year he had our full support. We have upgraded his lifestyle outside the game and he is being able to fulfill his mothers dreams. I am talking with the players on a daily basis since they have arrived from BGMS. You guys should stop following these rumors and speculations about buyout and transfers. If there are any transfers happening I will be the first one to tell you guys. Also we will keep Goblin in our team till the time he says I need to leave. If he says he wants to leave he can go, but for now Goblin wants to stay with this team and he is happy over here”.

Thug also talked about Goblin’s current form and said, “Every esports athlete goes through a rough patch and struggles sometimes. Goblin has done it in the past and he knows he can do it again”.

Fans are waiting for Goblin’s return to competitive matches with Team Soul and hoping for a good performance from him as well as the team.
