Sources: YoungJae set to join LOUD in CBLOL for 2026 season

LOUD finalized the roster this week for the CBLOL in 2026. According to sources close to Sheep Esports, the organization has signed jungler Ko “YoungJae” Yeong-jae for the upcoming season. He will replace Johnson “Gryffinn” Le, who is leaving for FlyQuest.

In addition to the arrival of YoungJae, the LOUD also brought Song "Bull" Seon-gyu as ADC for the South Korean duo on the team.

For the top and mid positions, the move was to bet on young talent. The organization also agreed to loan Carlos Felipe “xyno” Ferreira, who will replace Leonardo “Robo” Souza, and finalized a buyout for Jean "Mago" Dias with RED Canids, after be unable to close with Thiago ''tinowns'' Sartori.

At the height of his 23 years, YoungJae had one of his best seasons of his career in 2025. With KT Rolster Challengers, he teamed up with a South Korean talent Yoo "Zinie" Baek-jin and achieved good results with the team in tournaments this year.
He won the LCK CL Kickoff and finished second in the second half of this year. Now, as he posted in his latest publications, he is looking for new challenges and, ultimately, to reach a possible Worlds.
