Birmingham City: Tom Wagner and Tom Brady’s net worth compared to the richest Premier League owners

Birmingham City: Tom Wagner and Tom Brady’s net worth compared to the richest Premier League owners.

This season, Birmingham City will want to return to the Championship as soon as possible.

Birmingham was promoted to League One the previous season despite their disastrous record, which saw seven different managers, including caretakers, taking command of the team. They are, nevertheless, in a good position to rebound quickly.

The ambitious Blues board allegedly invested a total of roughly £24 million this summer, of which £15 million was spent on Fulham striker Jay Stansfield, demonstrating their strong backing for manager Chris Davies during the transfer season.

Birmingham has altered since Knighthead Capital, chaired by Tom Wagner, acquired the team in the summer, despite their defeat in their first season under ownership..

A few weeks after the takeover was officially announced, NFL icon Tom Brady purchased a minority stake in the team. The Blues have benefitted greatly from Brady’s involvement, as evidenced by their most recent 3-1 victory over Wrexham at home, which attracted celebrities like David Beckham and Gary Neville to the stands.

Birmingham’s owners have big plans for the club, and in April they announced that they had bought a 48-acre site in the east of the city to build a brand new Sports Quarter, including a 60,000-seater stadium, with the project estimated to cost between £2-3 billion.

The Blues are expected to earn at least £20–30 million this season, which is more than many Championship clubs. Wagner has hinted at more exciting partnerships to come. In addition, the team recently announced three significant sponsorship deals with Nike, UNDEFEATED, and Delta Air Lines.

Wagner has set a goal of getting the team back into the Premier League by 2026, which would require back-to-back promotions. We also compared the net worth of Birmingham’s owners to those of teams that are currently in the top division.

Net worth of Birmingham City owners compared to Premier League’s richest

Owners of Birmingham, Knighthead Capital, are supposedly in charge of managing assets valued at about $9 billion (£7.25 billion). Wagner’s net worth is estimated to be over $1.6 billion (£1.34 billion), and Brady’s is apparently around $300 million (£252 million).

Based on GiveMeSport’s rankings, the Blues’ present owners rank seventh among all Premier League owners with a combined net worth of slightly under £9 billion.

Only the owners of Newcastle United (£478 billion), Manchester United (£19.2 billion), Aston Villa (£13.8 billion), Manchester City (£12.9 billion), Chelsea (£12.21 billion), Ipswich Town (£10.8 billion) and Arsenal (£9.97 billion) have a greater net worth than the Birmingham owners, underscoring the club’s financial power.

The Blues owners have a significantly higher net worth than some of those towards the bottom of the Premier League rich list, including the owners of Brentford (£216.3 million), Nottingham Forest (£479 million), Southampton (£1 billion), Brighton & Hove Albion (£1 billion) and Bournemouth (£1.4 billion).
