“See No Reason They Can’t” – Wrexham Backed To Reach Premier League at a Rapid Pace As Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney ‘Stay Engaged’

Published 07/01/2023, 12:16 PM EDT

As the new season approaches, the dust has finally started to settle on Wrexham AFC‘s heroics in the National League last season. After 15 long years, Wrexham emerged victorious, winning the league and earning promotion to the fourth division. The club’s success, however, hasn’t gone unnoticed, and there is already talk of them reaching the holy grail of English soccer – the Premier League.

The takeover by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney has injected a new sense of hope and optimism into the club and its passionate fan base. The dynamic duo’s involvement with Wrexham has been nothing short of transformative. They have breathed new life into a team that was once mired in mediocrity. With their eyes firmly set on reaching the Premier League, the Hollywood duo has now been backed by a soccer finance expert.

The positive energy and financial backing provided by the owners have enabled the club to make significant strides forward. Dr. Rob Wilson, a renowned soccer finance expert, believes that Wrexham could achieve its dream of playing in the Premier League in as little as five years. In a recent interview, Dr. Wilson explained, “How far Wrexham can go depends on the method of investment, and so far you would argue their performance should continue to improve”.

He then gave a logical explanation of how the owner’s involvement can speed up the process to reach PL.“The reality is, the Disneyfication of it means they will be able to sell shirts on four corners of the globe, whereas they wouldn’t have been able to without that type of ownership,” he shared. “Put that together and there’s more money going in, that allows them to do more in the transfer market”.

He further added, “Theoretically, the ceiling is to get to the Premier League. Based on the trajectory, I see no reason they can’t”. Following this logic, the expert believes, Wrexham can reach the top tier in “the next five, eight to 10 years if they continue this and the ownership stays engaged”. However, the road to the Premier League is never easy.

It requires meticulous planning, strategic investments, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. With the backing of two influential Hollywood figures, Wrexham can make significant strides toward its ultimate goal. Till then let’s look at what Wrexham has got planned for the upcoming season in EFL League Two.

Wrexham has emerged as one of the leading clubs vying for Powell’s signature. Although there have been no official confirmations yet, Wrexham’s manager, Phil Parkinson, is prepared to exercise patience in order to secure the players he desires. Parkinson understands that it will take time to identify and negotiate deals with players who will truly make a difference on the field. However, he remains committed to investing his effort and patience to attract top-level talent.
