Brady Ends Three-Year Spell as Birmingham City Investor
- On Monday, NFL legend Tom Brady ended his three-year association with Birmingham City, the club confirmed. The seven-time Super Bowl champion departs as a minority investor following his August 2023 arrival.
- Knighthead Capital co-founder Tom Wagner brought Brady onboard in 2023 to leverage his Super Bowl expertise and market the club internationally. Brady chaired a newly-created advisory board, serving as a close friend and business partner of Wagner.
- Reflecting on his tenure, Brady admitted he was warned against making "sweeping changes" after replacing head coach John Eustace with Wayne Rooney, who was sacked 83 days later. The club subsequently suffered relegation in 2024 before returning to the Championship.
- Birmingham City currently leads the Championship with 29 points after 15 games despite Brady's departure. The club remains committed to a £3 billion "Sports Quarter" development project featuring a 60,000-seater stadium.
- Brady, who called the New England Patriots' clash with the Green Bay Packers on Sunday for FOX Sports, continues his broadcasting career. He emphasized "You can't accomplish anything of significance without a great team" in an Instagram post.
