SunPayus leaves Movistar Riders
The Spanish AWPer is out of the squad after a year of service.
Movistar Riders have announced that Álvaro "SunPayus" García is no longer a part of their starting lineup, with the news coming amid reports that the Spanish sniper's transfer to ENCE is imminent.
The 23-year-old's exit from the squad marks the end of a one-year tenure with the Madrid-based organisation. SunPayus joined Movistar Riders as a replacement for Owen "smooya" Butterfield when the team pivoted to a Spanish-speaking lineup.

SunPayus has spent the entirety of his career thus far within the Spanish scene, playing for teams such as Iberian Family and Caronte before getting the call up to join the Alejandro "alex" Masanet-led lineup last August.
Whilst there, SunPayus proved himself to be an integral part of Movistar Riders' success, averaging an impressive 1.16 rating over 208 maps over the past twelve months, far above any of his peers with the closest being alex at 1.08.
The Spaniard was also able to translate this strong performance in the server into notable event placings, with a first-place finish at ESL Challenger Valencia giving way to an even more impressive 3rd-4th place showing at IEM Cologne shortly after. This top-four finish in the Cathedral of Counter-Strike marked the team's first ever stage appearance at a Big Event and was enough to help propel the squad to their current peak of 6th in the world rankings.
Recent reports claim that SunPayus is currently the front runner to replace Olek "hades" Miskiewicz on ENCE, with the Polish AWPer having been benched from the European mix on August 5. Should this move come to fruition, it will mark SunPayus' first time outside of Spain and as a part of an international lineup.
On the flip side of things, Movistar Riders have already settled on their replacement AWPer according to an early August report by Fraglider, with Antonio "MartinezSa" Martinez supposedly being lined up to fill the void left by SunPayus' departure.

Movistar Riders are currently:
Alejandro "mopoz" Fernández-Quejo Cano
Alejandro "alex" Masanet
David "dav1g" Granado Bermudo
Raúl "DeathZz" Jordán Nieto
Galder "bladE" Barcena (coach)

Alejandro 'mopoz' Fernández-Quejo Cano
Antonio 'MartinezSa' Martinez
Owen 'smooya' Butterfield
Álvaro 'SunPayus' García
