"Last season the club sold two different kits in the club shop. That will be the same for this season but on top of that, a third kit will be sold via NFT," Crawley co-owner Preston Johnson explained.
"It will be an exclusive shirt you can get if you have an NFT and then there will be two options – for those that are local or ordering online either in the UK or our American or overseas friends. It hits the spot where we think it will be extremely profitable for the club, the way we’re doing this.
"We hope the announcement gets some good attention and positivity. We think the fans will be really excited by what we announce."

Those who invest in the NFTs will also be given privileges such as being offered a chance to have their say on how the club is run. One idea being explored is the possibility of allowing investors to have their say on how the transfer budget is spent. No doubt they'll be asking for Lionel Messi.
