American tech entrepreneur Brooklyn Earick has confirmed to the London Stock Exchange that he and his consortium will not be making an offer to buy Tottenham Hotspur.
Earick was the face of a £3.3 billion offer from a 12-member group of investors from the United States.
The consortium reportedly included big names with ties to both the NFL and the NBA. They had also set aside an additional £1.2 billion to cover transfers, player wages, and agent payments.
After weeks of speculation, Earick’s camp finally issued a formal statement confirming that they have shut down plans of making a formal bid to buy Tottenham.
The statement read (via Football London): “Further to the announcement made by the Board of Tottenham Hotspur Limited on 26 September 2025 regarding an informal expression of interest in relation to a proposal to acquire the entire issued, and to be issued, share capital of the company, Mr Brooklyn Earick confirms that he does not intend to make a firm offer for the company.”
This comes after an Asian-based consortium led by Firehawk Holdings Limited also pulled the plug on their Tottenham takeover plans.
Lewis family standing firm on their ‘not for sale’ stance
Tottenham’s ownership situation has made the headlines over the past few months.
Despite the Lewis family making it clear that they have no plans of selling the club, interested parties have been making moves to try to convince them.
Last month, the club revealed that they had received, and “unequivocally rejected”, separate expressions of interest from PCP International Finance Limited and the Firehawk consortium, led by Dr Roger Kennedy and Wing-Fai Ng.
PCP wasted no time ruling out following up with a formal bid, and Firehawk did the same shortly after.
Earick is the latest to have the door slammed in his face, and Tottenham have responded to his official confirmation with a statement of their own.
“The Board of Tottenham Hotspur notes the recent announcements from the Firehawk and Mr Earick’s consortiums that they do not intend to make an offer for the club,” the statement read.
“The Board thanks them for the constructive approach taken in the discussions with the club’s and the Lewis family’s representatives, and respecting the clear position of the Lewis family that the club is not for sale.”
