The Stellar Group Launches Esports Division
The Stellar Group has launched a new esports division with the signing of Jaden “Wolfiez” Ashman.
The 15-year-old is the UK’s all-time leading Fortnite earner having qualified for the Fortnite World Cup Finals this year. The event, which took place in the Arthur Ashe Stadium in Flushing Meadows, New York in July, had a prize pot of $30m.
Ashman competed in the duos event, whose first prize was $3m, and finished in second place along with his partner Dave Jong, where the pair scooped $2.25m to share between them.
Stellar Esports agent Oliver Chesses said: “I am absolutely delighted to welcome Jaden to the Stellar Group. He is an incredible talent and has achieved so much in so little time while still only being 15 years old. Jaden is remarkably mature and focused and yet so humble despite his extraordinary success this summer. He clearly has an exciting career ahead of him and Stellar is looking forward to playing a vital role in allowing Jaden’s talent to flourish further.”
Ashman added: “I am so happy to be part of The Stellar Group. They have been a hugely successful agency for so many years working with some of the biggest names in the world. To be part of that group of players is absolutely amazing”.
