‘Engaged 365 days a year’ - Tom Brady’s role at Birmingham City explained as NFL legend helps to steer record-breaking Blues back towards the Premier League

<p>Eyebrows were raised back in August 2023 when it was revealed that seven-time Super Bowl winner Brady had <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-tom-brady-reawakening-sleeping-giants-wrexham-birmingham-celebrity-owners-lower-leagues/blt9952bd458bee4bd9" target="_blank">acquired a minority stake in the Blues</a> and would take up a role on their board.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Plenty of questions have been asked since then of how involved he is with the West Midlands-based club and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/what-birmingham-city-players-really-think-tom-brady-trophy-winning-blues-captain-reveals-dressing-room-opinion-nfl-legend-what-does-he-know-questions/blta30a712e8f14da19" target="_blank">precisely what he has to offer</a> - having forged his GOAT reputation while <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/why-tom-brady-doesnt-need-know-about-football-help-birmingham-former-blues-boss-explaining-benefits-nfl-legend/blt6ecca10f78ea4e56" target="_blank">playing an altogether different kind of football</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Birmingham suffered relegation during the debut campaign of Brady’s involvement, with the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/drop-down-league-two-wayne-rooney-coaching-return-prediction-man-utd-legend-told-how-prove-himself/bltee14b06776bc23b7" target="_blank">appointment of Wayne Rooney as manager one of several questionable decisions</a> that were made, but they are <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/tom-brady-birmingham-to-spend-again-transfer-prediction-made-blues-ready-championship-return-push-towards-premier-league/blt19e3162320ffe858" target="_blank">heading back to the Championship in record-breaking style</a>.</p>

Not a day goes by where he and I don’t FaceTime or talk or message about Birmingham.
</p><p>“I consider myself to be a pretty competitive person. Tom’s on a whole other level. His philosophy around winning and the culture of winning is extremely well developed. When I talked about creating the right processes at the club to provide a foundation for success, Tom is the one really driving that.”</p>

WHAT TOM WAGNER SAID

<p>Brady brings trophy-winning knowhow to Birmingham, with that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/tom-brady-backed-beat-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-premier-league-birmingham-championship-wrexham-consolidation-promoted-league-one/bltafe4c07d41fa3de5" target="_blank">vast experience being put to good use</a>. He does not meddle in matters such as team selection and tactics, but keeps a close eye on events at St Andrew’s and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/why-okay-tom-brady-ryan-reynolds-bring-mates-over-for-now-celebrity-guests-embraced-birmingham-wrexham/blt2bc7625f4c17b8aa" target="_blank">has attended several games</a>.</p>
