Sentinels permanently acquire TenZ in a "seven-figure deal" according to reports

After multiple rumours suggesting that Tyson "TenZ" Ngo would permanently move to Sentinels, leaving Cloud9 behind, the current VCT Masters 2 winners have all but confirmed the signing of the Jett ace, according to The Esports Observer. 

In a report published this 1st June, TEO points to a deal signed in April between both orgs, which not only extended TenZ's loan with Sentinels, but allowed the team to trigger a buyout clause to fully acquire Ngo's contract. 

The report doesn't mention the amount Sentinels had to pay for the deal to happen, however, it mentions that "a seven-figure" sum was accorded between both parties.

With how well the Canadian fragger has meshed with the team, helping Sentinels become a dominant and unbeatable force in Valorant, winning VCT Masters 2, the first LAN event in the game's history without dropping a map, it's no surprise the North American squad decided to fork out a ludicrous amount of money to keep him with the roster.
