According to Jaxon.GG's report, the Spanish jungler Javier “Elyoya” Prades Batalla will continue to play in LEC in the Mad Lions shirt in 2023. Although Elyoya still has a contract with Mad until the next year, the top European teams have contacted early, including both of the rich giants, FNC & G2.
Earlier, the crazy lion into Madrid wanted to sell Elyoya, though, the deadline of the negotiation was on November 5, Fnatic still did not reach an agreement. G2 Esports also wants to bring Elyoya about the main squad to replace Jankos, but G2's 800,000 euro offer has been rejected.
At this time, the time for the negotiation of the Elyoya deal is gone, which means that Elyoya will stay in Mad and fight in 2023. Elyoya is considered one of the best Jungle Lec since its debut in 2021. Along with Mad Lions, Elyoya has crowned the country twice in a row.
In 2022, Elyoya led Mad to Worlds and attended the starting round, although playing relatively well when he entered the knockout round, but a victory of Saigon Buffalo was not enough for Mad to set foot in the Worlds group stage. After 1 year of diving, Mad is determined to rediscover the glory next year, and Elyoya will be the main nucleus in the European Kingdom's squad.
