Sources: Jamelinho213 set to join Eintracht Frankfurt

According to sources close to Sheep Esports, Ryad “Jamelinho213” Bentot has reached a verbal agreement with Eintracht Frankfurt for the upcoming 2026 VALORANT season. He thus completes the team’s roster, which will begin the season with David “Fizzy” Figueiredo, Alessio “musashi” Xhaferi, Luca “azury” Sammer and Ondřej “MONSTEERR” Petrů, as previously reported by Sheep Esports.

Over the course of 2025, the French player has gradually established himself as one of the young Duelists to watch in Europe, playing across multiple mixed rosters while consistently delivering a level above typical Tier 2 standards. The end of 2025 marked a period of movement across several teams, culminating in a title at the offseason THE POKAL 2025, a German tournament organized by Project V, already with Eintracht Frankfurt and the whole new roster. SGE secured the trophy with a 3–1 victory in the grand final against CGN Esports.

This win adds to other events he took part in, notably Project Blender 2025 and Monsters Reloaded, where he took down the new VCT Gentle Mates roster before falling in a very close match against FUT Esports. With this offseason run, Jamelinho213 further confirms his status as a highly active presence in EMEA Tier 2, ahead of a potential long-term move into a DACH-based project with Frankfurt.

For SGE, Jamelinho213's arrival would extend the momentum of an already busy 2025 season on the German-speaking scene. The German organization competed throughout the VALORANT Challengers 2025 circuit: DACH Evolution, including a Split 3 final against MOUZ, which ended in a 0–3 loss in the grand final after a solid run to the last weekend of competition.

The team also made numerous regional appearances across VCL and various offseason tournaments, gradually laying the foundations for a stable project built around its German/European five-man lineup. That trajectory accelerated toward the end of the year with THE POKAL 2025.

For the team, adding a young Duelist already accustomed to international Tier 2 competition like Jamelinho213 would align with the organization’s broader ambition: to solidify a roster capable of translating regional consistency into more meaningful results on the wider EMEA stage in 2026.
