Fnatic's Fabian "Febiven" Diepstraten will return to H2k-Gaming for the 2017 EU LCS Spring Split, replacing Sang-wook "Ryu" Yoo, according to a report from ESPN's Jacob Wolf.

Febiven last played for H2K in the latter half of 2014, when he helped the UK squad qualify for the EU LCS. In January 2015 he headed to Fnatic, and was replaced on H2K by Ryu. The two players continued to man the mid lane for their teams for the following four seasons.

The Dutch mid laner’s return to H2K reunites him with Andrei "Odoamne" Pascu, who first came to the team with Febiven in June 2014. H2K re-signed Odoamne and Marcin "Jankos" Jankowski for the 2017 season last week on Nov. 22. Other players’ future on the roster is less certain — AD carry Aleš “Freeze” Kněžínek, who was benched in late July due to an arm injury, announced the same day that Odo and Jankos were renewed that he would be leaving the team, while his replacement Konstantinos-Napoleon "FORG1VEN" Tzortziou announced Nov. 3 that his contract had expired and he was open to offers from other teams.

The ESPN report claims the roster move was originally going to be announced on Nov. 27, following the expiration of Febiven’s contract on Nov. 21. However, the report claims Fnatic asked for the announcement to be delayed until they could announced their own roster on Dec. 1, which was timed to coincide with the launch of their BUNKR pop-up store. Fnatic tweeted later on Monday that it would be announcing its roster at the BUNKR on Dec. 1.

The report claims Ryu has not accepted an offer from a new team, but is open to playing in Europe, South Korea or North America.

H2K surprised fans by placing in 3-4th at the 2016 World Championship last month, after topping their group over EDward Gaming, ahq e-Sports Club and INTZ e-Sports. The EU’s second-seed team defeated Albus NoX Luna 3-0 in the quarterfinals, but lost 3-0 to Samsung Galaxy in the semis.

Fnatic, despite a strong start to the EU LCS summer season, sunk to fifth place ahead of the playoffs and were swept out of the quarterfinals 3-0 by H2K. At the EU Regional Finals, Fnatic took an even more embarrassing 3-0 at the hands of a revitalized Unicorns of Love, which prompted an outpouring of frustration from the team. Febiven hinted in his own tweets that he was planning on leaving, though most rosters remained locked until after Worlds concluded at the end of October.
