Popular BGMI content creator and GodLike Esports' owner, Chetan "Kronten" Chandgude, recently went live on his Instagram handle and mentioned some shocking news. He said that the ace assaulter, Jonathan, was approached by 7Sea Esports to join them as a loan player in the forthcoming PMWI: Afterparty Showdown, but the star rejected the proposal without any second thoughts.

Since both Kronten and Jonathan are followed by millions of fans in the Indian community, Kronten's words have created a huge buzz amongst players and fans of the game.

Kronten mentioned that officials from 7Sea Esports approached Jonathan on the night they won the BGMI Showdown LAN event and confirmed their participation in the forthcoming PMWI: Afterparty Showdown. However, they were turned down by the star performer as he feared that his inclusion might negatively impact the team's performance.

Kronten added that Jonathan was someone who wanted to win trophies, and this would not be possible without proper synergy among teammates. This was allegedly the reason behind Jonathan rejecting 7Sea's invitation.

According to Kronten, Jonathan preferred sticking to the main lineup of GodLike Esports and wanted to participate in future international events by qualifying with the team, similar to what happened during the PUBG Mobile Global Championships 2021 Grand Finals.

The GodLike honcho also talked about the news of BGMI becoming available in the country before India's Independence Day. Fans are eagerly waiting for Krafton and the Indian government to inform them about news related to the game's ban.
