Sources: Mousesports trialing Rejin as head CS:GO coach

The new Mousesports Counter-Strike: Global Offensive roster is trialing Allan ‘Rejin’ Petersen as their head coach, according to multiple sources close to the players. 

Rejin is a former head coach for the Tricked Esport organization but has not coached for a professional team since 2017. Rejin was also a professional player in Counter-Strike: Source and CS:GO, first surfacing in mid-2009. 

In 2010, the Dane played on a lineup named ‘PENTIA’ with current Astralis in-game leader Lukas ‘gla1ve’ Rossander. Later on in 2011, Mathias ‘MSL’ Lauridsen would join the lineup alongside the other two Danes.

New Mousesports recruit karrigan could be joined by fellow Dane, Rejin.

Once he transitioned to CS:GO in 2012, Rejin played with Astralis player Andreas ‘Xyp9x’ Højsleth on a team named CPLAY. 

From there, Rejin bounced around as a member of a few different mixed Danish lineups, but didn’t achieve international results. It wasn’t until early 2017 that he made the transition to coach and joined the Tricked Esport organization.

Mouseports announced their new active roster today – it includes three new players, with Finn ‘karrigan’ Andersen, David ‘frozen’ Čerňanský, and Özgür ‘woxic’ Eker joining the team. 

Retained on the Mouz roster are Chris ‘chrisJ’ de Jong, who returns from a short stint on the bench, and Robin ‘ropz’ Kool. It was first reported by Dexerto that karrigan was in discussions with Mouseports last week.

This will not be karrigan’s first time with the organization, though. The veteran in-game leader has previously represented Mousesports in both 1.6 and CS:GO.
