, has announced his free agency due to his contract with LOUD expiring. He further mentioned he speaks Portuguese and English in a video he shared on Twitter/X, opening the doors to an international signing.
LOUD had signed aspas 18 months ago, and he took the scene by storm. He was a critical factor in LOUD's 2022 successes, including a second-place finish at Masters Reykjavik 2022 and hoisting the Champions 2022 trophy.
2023 saw LOUD find some success by qualifying for every international event, though they would fail to win a second trophy this year. After a close-run second place finish at VCT LOCK//IN, they dominated the Americas league to qualify for both Masters Tokyo and Champions 2023. At Tokyo, they were eliminated early in the playoffs after losses to
