After stepping away for personal reasons, Team Dignitas' head coach Sami "Rico" Habri will be returning to the team in time to prepare for the playoffs, the organization announced today.

Rico initially left the team on July 15 to return to France, and at the time, the duration of his sudden absence was unknown. For the past two weeks, Dignitas EU coach and former pro player Ram "Brokenshard" Djemal has been filling in for the coaching position.

Team Dignitas has secured a playoff berth, taking sixth overall with a record of 10-8. They are set to face Team Impulse in the playoff quarterfinals on August 9.
