Tom Brady says Milan’s San Siro stadium would be his top choice for an NFL game in Italy, praising the passion of AC Milan fans. He also floated Como’s lakeside stadium as a scenic alternative, though its small capacity makes it a less practical option.

By the Numbers
  • Brady played in 4 international NFL games during his 23-year career.
  • Lake Como Stadium seats 13,600.
  • The 2026 NFL season features 9 international games; Mexico City hosts the final one in Week 11.
Yes, But

San Siro has not hosted an NFL game, and Como’s stadium is far smaller than a typical NFL venue. Brady also joked that a Bengals-Steelers rivalry game at San Siro could turn the stadium into “a complete zoo.”

State of Play
  • The NFL has expanded its international schedule to new cities, but has yet to stage a game in Italy.
  • Munich will host the Patriots-Lions matchup in Week 10, the 2026 season’s only game in Germany.
What's Next

Milan could become a future NFL destination as the league continues adding international locations, though no Italy game has been announced.

Bottom Line

Brady’s pick spotlights San Siro’s appeal to NFL fans—but turning that vision into a game would require the league to add Italy to its growing international slate.
