The team is playing in England's second tier Championship

NFL great Tom Brady announced that he’s become a minority owner of English second-tier soccer team Birmingham.

The seven-time Super Bowl champion will be working together with U.S.-based Knighthead Capital Management, and becomes chairman of a new advisory board, Brady and Birmingham, he said Thursday.

“Maybe you are asking, ‘What do you know about English football, Tom?’” Brady said in a club video. “Well, let’s just say I’ve got a lot to learn. But I do know a few things about winning.”

Birmingham said Brady will “apply his extensive leadership experience and expertise across several components of the club. Birmingham is an iconic club with so much history and passion and to be part of the Blues is a real honor for me,” Brady said.
