According to The Guardian, the 19-page document forms part of an ongoing legal dispute between Bloom and Ryan Dudfield, a former associate whose lawyers claim he is owed approximately £189 million in gambling profits.
The group, known as the Starlizard Betting Syndicate, is reportedly generating around £600 million in annual winnings, with wagers allegedly placed through accounts belonging to “footballers, athletes, and businessmen,” according to the documents.
