Esports brand ESL has today revealed that Jonas Vikan has left his position as Tournament Director due to the travel interfering with family commitments, and now Alexander Nehr has taken over his position after 11 years in various positions throughout ESL.
Jonas Vikan himself said: "Id like to thank the ESL leadership for the opportunity and for their support. I am truly sorry I have to leave, but it is something I have to do for my family. I would also like to thank the ESL staff whom I`ve worked closely with over 11 big events in 11 locations around the world. Their commitment earned us back the CSGO Major and that was a nice goal to accomplish."
Alexander Nehr said this about his new position as tournament director: "After more than 11 years with ESL, I'm excited to move into the role as ESL's new Tournament Director. The experience I was able to gather throughout the years will help me to even further improve the quality of and around our tournaments in the future. I'm also looking very much forward to once again work closely with all the players and teams to strengthen our relations. I would also like to thank the ESL management team for their continued support and trust."
Do you think Nehr can do a good job?
