One part of the trailer shows the American looking frustrated during a game, leading one fan to reply: 'No messing about there, love him.'
'#TeamBrady,' another supporter replied.
Another clip shows Brady on a private jet last season. Looking at and pointing down the barrel of the camera, the NFL legend didn't hold back in his message to his side's promotion rivals, Wrexham.

Freddy Adu reveals truth behind Celtic transfer interest and why 'America's Pele' never fancied Rangers
The former prodigy caught the eye in a game against the Hoops in 2007 during their pre-season tour of the States Freddy Adu is a name synonymous with millions of Football Manager players around the world - and one that Celtic fans of a certain age might remember too. The American made his debut in the MLS at the age of just 14 and was soon the talk of the town all over Europe, even spending time on trial at Manchester United. But while the man once dubbed as 'America's Pele' went onto win 17 caps for his country and make a few appearances for Lisbon giants Benfica, Adu infamously never fulfilled his potential, and retired aged 31 in 2021 after nomadic career that took him to several countries including Serbia, Finland and Sweden. Celtic were touted as a potential destination for the wonderkid back in 2007, with his agent even going as far as saying he planned to get in touch with the Parkhead club about Adu's talent during a Hoops' trip to the States for an MLS-All Stars friendly encounter that summer. A year earlier, a 16-year-old Adu had caught Celtic's attention when he found the net in a 4-0 friendly victory for D.C United against Gordon Strachan's team and says he remembers that goal all too well. Speaking exclusively to Record Sport via the home of slots, Adu recalled: "I remember scoring the goal, a really nice through-ball and I got on the end of it and was able to finish it. It was one of those games where I was able to show my different forms of skill and in turn create a lot of chances and get the first goal of the game! It was a fun time! "I had one of my better games that day! I thought we played some of the best soccer we've ever played as a team against Celtic. I remember that I was pumped up to play that game, and I played one of my best games I think, as 16 or 17 year old. "I remember I was juiced up to play that game because it's not every day you get a chance to play against one of the premier teams in Europe, which Celtic was at the time. Celtic is always a big name, and everybody knows Celtic, so I was really excited. "And I ended up having one of my better games, that game! And I do remember we beat pretty handsomely too, 4-0! That might have been the best game that we played that season, believe it or not!" Although his agent went public about wanting to speak to Celtic, Adu says no discussions about making the move across the pond ever took place. "No", he added. "The weird thing is that there were some rumblings, but it wasn't big enough for me to really get into it I guess. At that point, there were a lot of stories and whatnot about this team or that team, but it never really went anywhere, so I wasn't really aware of it to that extent, I guess." But the now 36-year-old insists he would have loved the chance to dazzle under the lights at Parkhead and reveals his preference over Celtic for bitter rivals Rangers, where former international teammates Maurice Edu and DaMarcus Beasley both spent some time during their respective careers. He stated: "It would have probably been Celtic. Growing up between the two teams, I liked Celtic. I love (Henrik) Larsson, he was very good for them. That Celtic were really, really good in my childhood and I liked them. "I liked them more than I liked Rangers, for sure. And the funny thing is, DaMarcus Beasley did play for Rangers, and I remember Maurice Edu played for Rangers as well, and I remember telling Beasley one time: 'Rangers is cool and all, but Celtic all day, every day!'

Love Is Blind UK fans 'work out' future for favourite couple after spotting subtle sign
Fans are already having their say on the Love Is Blind UK couples *Contains spoilers for Love Is Blind UK Season 2* Love Is Blind UK fans have worked out the future of one "favourite" couple as season two is released. The highly anticipated second season of Love Is Blind UK hit Netflix today with the first four episodes now available to stream. Brand new hopefuls are taking part in the unique experiment in a bid to find their perfect match. The twist? Not being able to see their potential partner in person, instead relying on a strong emotional bond. Once that connection is secured, then the couple will take their relationship to the next stage by getting engaged - only then will they meet in person. And with the first batch of episodes dropping today, fans are already having their say on who they think will make a strong relationship, or who will ultimately leave the show in tears. Kal and Sarover have formed a connection in the pods, but due to their differing backgrounds and the fact Sarover is not Kal's 'usual type', fans fear the worst. 29-year-old medical company owner Sarover grew up in a modern Indian family and has never had a serious relationship or dated outside of her ethnic background before. Growing up, she believed that a boyfriend should be the one she intended to marry. Kal, who is 32, from Wigan, has not had a relationship last for longer than a year. His dad is Pakistani and his mother is English and he is part of a large, close-knit family. Fans have "noticed" Kal seems particularly "cold" or "uninterested" in Sarover after taking their connection to the next step and asking her to marry him. One fan said on X: "Kal better not break Sarover's heart! She's a gorgeous girl… he is giving me a bad feeling with her not being his 'type'." Another penned: "You're done - sarover." A third added: "Kal needs to stop singing about Sarover not being his type, like we get it, don't make the girl feel insecure." Over on Reddit, one person wrote: "Its pretty clear that sarover and Kal are not getting married." Another added: "He seems to be very cold towards her and she needs a reassurance she won't be getting." A third worried: "I Hope the indian/pakistani thing won't set them back." However, despite some convinced of a future heartbreak, many fans say they are "rooting" for the pair. One person said: "Kal and Sarover are such a cute couple, rooting for them so far." A third confessed: "Don't want to speak too soon but Kal and Sarover are my ship and i'll ride with them till the end." A fourth added: "Sarova and Kal are my favorites so far." What's next for Sarover and Kal? Fans will have to tune in to find out.

Chelsea fans are crying out for Gianluigi Donnarumma and Marc Guehi – how likely are either transfers this summer?
Enzo Maresca has identified the area of his squad that he'd most like to strengthen DONN THE MOVE? Chelsea fans are crying out for Gianluigi Donnarumma and Marc Guehi – how likely are either transfers this summer?

But despite a season of chopping and changing in goal last term, Chelsea are not one of those.

The Blues, who explored a cut-price deal for AC Milan's Mike Maignan earlier in the summer, have little interest in the Italian. Donnarumma shone in the Champions League last season as PSG claimed their first European crown but will leave before the end of the window. The European champions have signed Lucas Chevalier from Lille and Donnarumma was left out of their squad for the Uefa Super Cup against Tottenham. While Enzo Maresca had a headache in goal last season, the Blues feel they have turned a corner. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL LAST GIFT Ballon d'Or-winning Man Utd star Denis Law's will revealed after death aged 84 Their army of keepers has been trimmed down and, after a solid end to last season Spaniard Robert Sanchez is now first choice. That did not stop them exploring Maignan, though club sources insist they are happy with the options at Stamford Bridge. Filip Jorgensen, signed from Villarreal last summer, is seen as an able deputy. That is before you get to what a deal for Donnarumma would have looked like. BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK 5 5 PSG are thought to have originally offered the keeper a deal which would have made him one of the highest paid in his position worldwide before their U-turn this summer. Chelsea's wage structure has undergone a lot of change under their American owners, with players signed on long, incentivised deals with a lower basic wage than at other clubs. Watch Ruben Amorim's reaction when asked if Man Utd are signing PSG keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma 5 TRANSFER NEWS LIVE - KEEP UP WITH ALL THE LATEST FROM A BUSY SUMMER WINDOW The Blues are keen to avoid the mistake of tying themselves to another big name on eye-watering wages as they did with Raheem Sterling. Donnarumma's wages of around £200,000-a-week would not fit the current structure. Furthermore, while the Italian impressed in Europe, his stats across last season were below average in Ligue 1. Chelsea are also keen not to block the pathway for Belgian youngster Mike Penders. Penders, 20, is well thought of inside Stamford Bridge and has been sent to sister club Strasbourg on loan for the season. Instead of pushing for a new goalkeeper, Maresca has now turned his attention to a central defender following Levi Colwill's ACL injury. Maresca said a new centre-back is now a "priority" this summer, which has led many to assume they would rival Liverpool for former Chelsea man Marc Guehi. The Blues have a 20 per cent sell-on clause for Guehi, meaning a deal between Chelsea and Palace would result in a lower fee for Maresca. However, the west Londoners are yet to explore a move for their academy graduate, who has one year left on his deal at Selhurst Park.
