Tottenham Hotspur has become the subject of a sensational, world-record-breaking takeover attempt, as a US consortium, spearheaded by tech entrepreneur Brooklyn Earick, has lodged a colossal £4.5 BILLION offer for the Premier League club.
The stunning proposal, which is understood to be headed by the 41-year-old former DJ and NASA employee, is being tabled by a 12-man group that includes investors with ties to major US sports franchises in the NFL and NBA.
The total financial package, if successful, would eclipse the previous record for a football club takeover set by Todd Boehly’s consortium for Chelsea in 2022. The bid is structured as follows:
- £3.3 Billion to buy out the entire club from current majority owners ENIC and the Lewis family.
- A further £1.2 Billion to be made available for a “player budget,” including fees and wages, for a huge investment into the squad.
Sources indicate that the consortium’s “Tottenham 3.0” blueprint is focused on immediately transforming the club’s on-field competitiveness. A key promise is to fully fund a massive January transfer spree for Head Coach Thomas Frank.
The bid comes just weeks after the departure of long-time Executive Chairman Daniel Levy. However, sources close to the Lewis family have reportedly reiterated that their current stance is that Tottenham Hotspur is not for sale, having already “unequivocally rejected” previous preliminary expressions of interest.
The situation remains fluid, as the sheer scale of the £4.5 billion offer—which reportedly exceeds the club’s current valuation—forces the current ownership to consider the lucrative proposition. The consortium is reportedly pushing for the deal to be ratified by December, ensuring the new funds can be deployed when the January transfer window opens.
