November 10: Legendary former quarterback Tom Brady has ended his stake as a minority investor in English club Birmingham City.
The club confirmed on Monday that the NFL icon, a record seven-time Super Bowl winner, is withdrawing its interest after first coming on board in 2023.
In a statement, the Championship club said: “Birmingham City Football Club extends its sincere thanks to Tom Brady for his unwavering involvement and support of the club over the past three years.
“It was truly incredible to have someone of Tom’s experience and passion associated with the club, and the club looks forward to continuing to build on this foundation from the training ground to the Birmingham community.”
The statement gave no reason for Brady’s departure and did not specify what would happen to his participation.
The seven-time NFL champion became part of the Birmingham ownership group in August 2023 through a partnership with Knighthead Capital Management. Acting as chairman of a new advisory board, Brady was a minority interest group.
It has minority stakes in the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders and the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces.
