Wayne Rooney responds to Tom Brady's criticism in Prime documentary
Brady, a minority shareholder at Birmingham, expressed concern about Rooney's work ethic in a documentary after visiting the club's training ground.
Rooney, who was sacked in January 2024 after less than three months in charge, stated his disappointment with Brady's comments on his new podcast.
The former England captain argued that Brady, an NFL great, does not fully understand the demands of football compared to American football.
Birmingham City were relegated at the end of the 2023-24 season following Rooney's departure, but have since achieved promotion back to the Championship under current manager Chris Davies.
