The Turkish organization FUT Esports has announced the signing of Doğan "xeus" Gözgen, who previously played for Eternal Fire. This marks the first and currently only addition to the club's VALORANT roster.
The Sixth Player
Doğan "xeus" Gözgen is a nineteen-year-old Turkish talent, rumored to have attracted the interest of several VCT teams. However, due to his limited proficiency in English, which is the dominant language in most Tier 1 teams in the EMEA region, xeus opted to join FUT Esports. Currently, xeus is the sixth player on the active roster, sparking speculation about potential changes within the team or the possible departure of a core player.
Feel the fear. 🇹🇷

Role Change or Player Departure?
There is no official information yet on whether xeus will be part of the starting lineup for VCT 2025. However, prior to his signing, there were rumors about the potential departure of cNed, and xeus may be his replacement. Both players fill the duelist role, which suggests possible changes to the lineup or significant role shifts within the team. These speculations are further fueled by the fact that FUT Esports is currently playing in the Red Bull Home Ground 5 qualifiers without cNed.
FUT Esports is currently participating in the Red Bull Home Ground #5 — Turkey Qualifier and has already secured a group stage exit with a 3-1 record. In the playoffs, they will compete against three other teams for the sole spot in the Europe Play-in. It is important to note that FUT Esports is playing without cNed and with KROSTALY standing in for AtaKaptan.
