Tom Brady Is New Co-Owner of Birmingham City Football Club

Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback 🏈Tom Brady has taken on a new role following his retirement from football.

In a press release shared on Thursday by the Birmingham City Football Club, it stated Brady, 46, will be the minority owner of the soccer team, based in Birmingham, England, and will sit as chairman of the team’s new advisory board.

As a part of his new position, the NFL star, deemed “among the greatest players in league history,” will work “alongside the sports science department to advise on health, nutrition, wellness, and recovery systems and programs” applying “his extensive leadership experience and expertise across several components of the Club.”

“In addition, Brady will work closely with the Board and the management team on global marketing efforts and the identification of new commercial partnership opportunities for the Club,” the release reads.

Furthermore, Chairman of the Board Tom Wagner gave his thoughts on Brady joining the team.

He shared:

“🏈Tom Brady joining the Birmingham City team is a statement of intent. We are setting the bar at world-class. Tom is both investing and committing his time and extensive expertise. As Chair of the Advisory Board, Tom will have a direct impact on the Club. The Men’s, Women’s, and Academy teams are going to benefit from the knowledge. The goal that Tom has committed to own is to make Birmingham City a respected leader in nutrition, health, wellness, and recovery across the world of football.”

On August 3, Brady posted a video to X, formerly known as Twitter, to talk about his new venture.

“I know success starts with the work put in when the world isn’t watching. I know a team is nothing without the city that shows up and stands behind it,” the Super Bowl champ said.

He added, “Most importantly, I know I like being the underdog.”

“The road’s been long for Birmingham, but these fans have never stopped believing. We’ve got a song that says no matter what, keep right on to the end of the road, and I’ll be on that road with you,” Brady continued.

He concluded, “I’ll see you at St. Andrews soon. It’s time to get to work.”
