Estimate

Current Assessment

Bloom controls Brighton & Hove Albion through its holding company, where Companies House records show him with at least 75% of shares and voting rights. Brighton has also owed him a large owner loan, reported at £373.3 million after a repayment. Outside Brighton, Hearts confirmed a £9.86 million investment for a 29% non-voting stake, and Melbourne Victory confirmed a 19.1% personal stake. His private betting and analytics operations appear substantial, but their profits and ownership economics are not public. The estimate therefore relies on confirmed assets, ownership records and restrained use of external billionaire reporting rather than team revenue or betting turnover.

Key caveats

Brighton is private, and no authoritative current team valuation was found in accessible sources.
The latest loan figure found is from 2024 reporting and may have changed.
Starlizard and betting-syndicate economics are private and partly described through disputed litigation.
External net-worth figures are weak evidence unless supported by transparent asset work.

Evidence gaps

Full 2025 Brighton accounts detail
Current Brighton valuation
Exact Union SG stake
Melbourne Victory purchase price
Personal debt, tax and cash position

Confidence

Low confidence

52/100

Important source, ownership, or liability gaps materially limit the estimate reliability.

Key Evidence Gaps

Current authoritative valuation for Brighton & Hove Albion
Exact Bloom ownership percentage above the 75%+ Companies House threshold
Full 2025 Brighton accounts detail, including current owner-loan and related-party balances
Starlizard/Jamestown ownership, profits, enterprise value, and attributable personal economics
Exact Royale Union Saint-Gilloise post-restructuring stake and value

Public Caveats

This is a low-confidence estimate because the largest assets are private and not independently valued in the supplied evidence.
Companies House supports Bloom's 75%+ control threshold for Brighton's holding company, but not his exact percentage or the club's current market value.
The £373.3m Brighton loan balance is from 2024 reporting and may have changed in later accounts.
Starlizard and betting-syndicate economics are private and should not be converted into personal wealth without further evidence.

Uncertainty Drivers

No authoritative current market valuation for Brighton & Hove Albion was found in accessible public sources.
Companies House gives a 75%+ threshold, not Bloom's exact Brighton percentage.
The latest publicly accessible loan-balance detail found was from 2024 reporting, not the full 2025 accounts text.
The economics and ownership of Starlizard, Jamestown Analytics and the betting syndicate are private and partly described through litigation.
Melbourne Victory and Union Saint-Gilloise stake values were not disclosed in official sources reviewed.
