Reaction to Brooklyn Earick’s consortium to deliver ‘Tottenham 3.0’ news

The Sun are running with a frankly wild story that Spurs could be bought by a consortium headed up by someone called Brooklyn Earick. Apparently, he’s already approached the club and the Lewis family.

The scale of the impact, entitled ‘Tottenham 3.0’, would match or even eclipse Roman Abramovich’s time at Chelsea.

Who is Brooklyn Earick?

Brooklyn Earick is a tech entrepreneur, former DJ, and blockchain enthusiast with a diverse career spanning music, technology, and sports investments. Originally from Bellefontaine, Ohio, he began DJing at age 15 in Columbus and later graduated from The Ohio State University.

After working in pharmaceuticals and doctor recruitment, he transitioned into tech, focusing on blockchain and NFTs. He is the founder of Redacted RnD, a technology and venture capital firm, and a partner at Algorith Capital.

Earick has also been involved in NFT projects, such as Rad NFTV and The Rad Pandas, and previously served as Chief Marketing Officer at Littlstar.

Has he been here before?

Earick was also briefly linked to a failed takeover of the Maserati MSG Formula E team in 2024, where he was announced as Chairman and CEO, but the deal collapsed due to unmet financial obligations.

Does he really exist, and why does he appear hell-bent on overpaying?

He is based in Singapore, with over 500 LinkedIn connections, and has a background that includes a brief stint at NASA.

Despite his high-profile ventures, some online discussions question his credibility due to the lack of a Wikipedia page or detailed public financial records.

Expect the usual suspects to be creaming themselves, whilst shouting unnecessarily over this. Yes, it sounds wonderful, but it wasn’t me that coined the phrase, “Too good to be true”, that was the work of people far wiser than I. 

Why overpay, and based upon what specific purchases would in excess of a billion anythings be required. this sounds like the nonsensical madness of an infant.

I’ll believe it when someone makes some actual sense of it, because this doesn’t add up if you are over the age of 12.
