Birmingham announce shock Brady departure

NFL legend Tom Brady has stepped down from his role as a minority owner of Birmingham City after three years with the club. The announcement comes with Birmingham currently sitting at the top of the Championship table. The club issued a statement expressing gratitude for his involvement and support, though no specific reason was given for his sudden departure.

Brady originally acquired a stake of just over three percent in August 2023 during a takeover by an American capital management firm. After experiencing relegation in his first season following the sacking of manager John Eustace, the club earned promotion back to the Championship and recently reached first place after a 2-1 victory over Swansea.
