Football star Tom Brady wants to play another NFL season for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The 44-year-old quarterback announced this on Sunday (local time) on his social media channels.

"In the past two months I've realized that my place is still on the field and not in the stands," wrote the most successful professional in NFL history with seven Super Bowl victories.

He will be playing his 23rd season in the league for the Bucs, with whom he won the Super Bowl two years ago and failed to get there in the playoffs last season.

The German NFL fans will probably see Brady live in the fall.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have already been confirmed as one of the two teams that will play the first NFL game in Germany in Munich.

Opponent and date are not yet known.
