Whether he had even heard of Leicester City a year ago is debatable, but Tom Brady is now all-in on The Foxes.
The New England Patriots quarterback and four-time SuperBowl champion sent a video to Leicester goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel and the rest of the team. The Danish star is a massive fan of American football and the NFL.
Brady has clearly being paying attention to Leicester's recent form which includes five clean-sheets in a row. "Keep up the great work. I Know you guys are kicking butt. You haven't not given up many goals in the last couple of games."

Schmeichel was himself delighted to see the video from Brady, who he called "one of my biggest idols".
Blown away. Surreal receiving this from one of my biggest idols and for me the best ever QB in the @NFL #Patriots https://t.co/YbxNc9ladJ
