“I am eager to bring my expertise in gaming and acquisition to contribute to Fanatics' continued success and growth in the industry,” he added.

“I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to Johnny Aitken and Ron Shell for their unwavering support, mentorship and guidance during my time at PointsBet.

“You both have become part of my extended family and I am forever indebted to you for taking a chance on me. I'll forever bleed PointsBet red and black.”
