YouTube star KSI has claimed he received a deal from Kick as he eyed up a return to streaming after 10 years since his last broadcast.
With a staggering 40 million subscribers on YouTube across his channels, KSI has long been by far the biggest influencer in the UK.
Besides YouTube, over the years KSI has established himself in the world of boxing, making PPV history and kicking off the trend of influencers stepping into the ring.
Not only that, the British YouTuber has made a dent in the beverage industry alongside Logan Paul, selling over a billion bottles of Prime Hydration since its launch in early 2022.
KSI claims he received Kick offer amid streaming return
Despite all his ventures across YouTube, boxing, music, and even the drinks industry, KSI recently hinted at a return to live streaming in early 2024. ‘The Nightmare’ asked his fans for suggestions on which platform he should take to, eyeing up Twitch, Kick, and YouTube.

Ultimately, KSI found himself streaming on YouTube on February 7, although it ended in disaster after his IP address was leaked just an hour into the broadcast, But, as it turns out, KSI was actually offered a deal with Kick.
In a recent SideCast episode, the Sidemen discussed Adin Ross’ idea of Kick signing the group to a $100 million streaming deal, but they never received it. At that moment, KSI revealed that he received an offer from the platform as he returned to live streaming.
“I got offered something from Kick,” he divulged. However, despite the platform being known for its lucrative contracts, his offer wasn’t “anywhere close” to xQc’s staggering reported $100 million he received to join the platform.
Nevertheless, it appears KSI will be sticking in his home on YouTube for the time being, having already streamed again on the platform since his first disastrous broadcast. And, according to KSI, he has plans to stream more regularly.
