Tottenham takeover could head for ‘absolute disaster’ as worrying Brooklyn Earick images emerge on social media
Tottenham could experience the biggest change of the last 25 years over the coming months.
The Joe Lewis family have been unafraid to push through several big changes over the past couple of months.
One of the biggest was Spurs’ highly controversial decision to sack Ange Postecoglou just weeks after he had won Tottenham the UEFA Europa League, ending a 17-year trophy drought.
Then came Daniel Levy stepping down as Tottenham chairman after almost 25 years at the helm. It now seems that the latest change could be the Lewis family themselves.
Brooklyn Earick takeover would be ‘a disaster’
Former DJ Brooklyn Earick is the public face of a consortium prepared to put in a £4.5billion bid to buy Tottenham from the Lewis family.
While the Lewis family do not seem to be prepared to part ways with the club, it has been suggested that Earick could formally bid for Spurs in the near future.
Earick has been vocal about his intentions with the North London club on social media, and even criticised Thomas Frank’s decision to play Xavi Simons as a left-winger.
As a result, Tottenham expert and Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – believes that Earick is not the right person to be the face of Spurs.
“Honestly, he looks like someone who’s got way too much money too soon from Bitcoin or something,” Wenham said.
“I can imagine him being an absolute disaster. It sounds awful to say, but just look at the pictures of him and you’ll see what I mean. I could see him being in the Bill Nick pub with the fans every game and that sort of thing. It wouldn’t be boring, don’t get me wrong. But I could see it being a complete disaster.
“You don’t see serious business people posting the itinerary from the club about when he got to look around and things like that. I just don’t see it happening with him. He seems like he’s enjoying the publicity of it all.”
But with the Lewis family keen to remain at the helm at Tottenham, it seems there is little to worry about where Earick is concerned.
How could Tottenham look under Brooklyn Earick?
One of the things on Earick’s reported to-do list if he takes over at Spurs is to invest money into the transfer market.
Objectively, the Lilywhites had one of their best summers in recent history just a couple of weeks ago, with Mohammed Kudus already looking like the steal of the summer.
- Tottenham signed Kudus from West Ham for a reported £55m fee
- Kudus has netted one goal and provided five assists thus far
But the cracks are already beginning to show in North London, particularly on the left wing, to which Tottenham failed to recruit a suitable Son Heung-min replacement over the summer.
However, if Earick was planning to invest heavily in the transfer market, Spurs and Frank could expect several star signings over the next couple of seasons.
