Tom Brady was recently seen posting Instagram stories about his visit to Spain. It was later revealed that the 46-year-old would be attending the game when he posted a picture in the story outside the Bernabeu stadium. However, despite the curiosity about his presence for today’s clash, the legend just seems to be on a normal vacation and no particular purpose has been reported. Additionally, there isn’t any concrete reference about Brady supporting either team. Interestingly, the player reposted his latest Instagram post as a story and tagged Real Madrid.

Meanwhile, Tom Brady over the years has shown that he follows European soccer a bit. The five-time NFL MVP was seen attending a Premier League game between Manchester United and Tottenham in 2022. But more surprisingly he was also seen supporting Manchester United instead of his friend Harry Kane. Kane credited Brady for inspiring him and both of them keep interacting with each other on social media. Nevertheless, the American star could witness another epic at Bernabeu.

La Liga is heading towards its final stages, and once again it’s between hosts Real Madrid and the Blaugrana. With Carlo Ancelotti’s team already heading for the title with an 8-point lead over Barca, a win could impress Tom Brady again after 2017. Brady praised Barcelona saying, “Congratulations on your incredible victory and good luck keeping the magic alive the rest of the way,” after their comeback in the 2017 UEFA Champions League round against PSG in the round of 16.

Moreover, FC Barcelona would want to take revenge for last time’s loss after Jude Bellingham’s heroics won the game for Madrid. Overall, it seems like the tempo is set for the iconic clash. But who will end up triumphant? Let us know in the comments.
