NFL legend Tom Brady has been warned that it will take at least 10 years before he gains financially from his investment in Birmingham City.
NFL legend a minority owner at Birmingham City. But the NFL legend has been told by football financial expert Rob Wilson, a professor of economics at Sheffield Business School, that he will only start gaining financially from his investment at least after 10 years from now., Wilson said, "If the return on investment is Brady’s prime motive, and we don’t know what that is, then you’re looking at a time frame of more than 10 years.
"Birmingham is a big city and a lot of football gets played in and around it, whether it’s Aston Villa, West Bromwich Albion etc, so there’s a lot of competition in and around the city for them to get around before they can start to make some strong financial returns. So I don’t think a 10-year time horizon is excessive, I think it’s quite modest.
"Brady possibly had Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, and their investment in Wrexham, in mind when he chose to invest in Birmingham City," said Wilson. "The unique thing about Wrexham is there’s a unique story behind it, because of the age and location. I don’t see the Wrexham story being repeated as multiple. Tom Brady has a massive following because of his success in American football, and there will be a story to tell about him and his story in investing in Birmingham FC.
