lauNX seeks off-season options from FUT

Laurențiu “lauNX” Țârlea has asked FUT for permission to discuss offers for the second half of the season, people familiar with the matter confirmed. The player raised the issue before FUT’s Cologne campaign, and sources indicate the request is not connected to the team’s result at the Major.

lauNX joined FUT in August 2025 from Nexus as a replacement for Kévin “misutaaa” Rabier. He has averaged a 1.10 rating with FUT and was among the contributors when the club won PGL Bucharest in April, the organisation’s first notable trophy.

At the recent Major, FUT finished 9th–11th after a loss to BetBoom in the final round of Stage 3. Earlier matches included defeats to Vitality and G2 and wins over B8 and MOUZ. People involved with the discussions indicated the player’s request to explore options was independent of those results.

Following the elimination, lauNX addressed uncertainty around his future: “Many things can happen, especially when the big guys are coming with crazy offers. I don’t know what’s gonna happen. I have no comment because then if I say something and then the opposite happens, I might get backlash for it, so I don’t wanna say anything.”

FUT has not made a public decision. Club and player representatives are continuing talks ahead of the summer transfer window, and discussions are expected to continue in the coming weeks before any formal moves are announced.
