Much of the credit for Wrexham AFC’s recent success and growth is down to their owners, who now have their eyes set on the biggest prize, the English Premier League.

The Canadian-American actor duo bought the team in November 2020 through their RR McReynolds company, a deal that saw 98.6% backing of the Wrexham Supporters Trust. The new ownership marked the beginning of a fairytale run for the team that eventually led them to breaking barriers and winning hearts.

Premier League is the main goal

The new owners brought with them a refreshing and different style of running the show. The change in the team’s performance and fortunes were instantly visible. They had a very successful first year, making it to the finals of the 2021-22 FA Trophy but their greatest moment in recent history happened in the National League. The team lifted the trophy after a 45 years long wait and that victory promoted them to EFL League two, making their return to the league after a 15-year hiatus.

The fairytale journey Wrexham AFC have enjoyed has a lot of contributing factors. Primarily, the style of ownership and freedom given to the management by them has paved the way for some great football and wonderful camaraderie in the squad. The team had one of their most successful seasons in the League Cup as they finished with a tally of 111 points.
