While G2's position on m0NESY is crystal clear, there is a sense of ambiguity surrounding the future of their star player, Nikola "NiKo" Kovač. Peca's statement regarding NiKo differs notably from his stance on m0NESY, acknowledging NiKo as one of the game's greatest players. Speculation abounds about NiKo potentially making a move, and sources hint at ongoing discussions, though no agreement has been reached as of yet.
