Championship news

Wigan manager Ryan Lowe says his club took Paul Mullin on loan as they “couldn’t afford” to agree a permanent transfer with Wrexham.

Wrexham have been warned that the “unique” strategy implemented by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney faces “challenges” in the Championship.

Wrexham loanee Paul Mullin, who is now at Wigan, has enjoyed an immediate reunion with former team-mate James McClean when passing through an airport.

Phil Parkinson has explained how the ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ documentary, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney help him to get transfer deals over the line.

Phil Parkinson has revealed that, during a summer trip Down Under, Wrexham are continuing their transfer business on “the other side of the world”.

Wrexham are being backed to land another “big coup” transfer, with the Red Dragons seeing a move for Sheffield Wednesday forward Josh Windass mooted.

Rob McElhenney has explained why he turned Ryan Reynolds from a potential “sponsor” to a fellow co-owner at Wrexham.

Swansea City have poked fun at Ryan Reynolds and Wrexham after drafting rap icon Snoop Dogg into their kit reveal for 2025-26.

Frank Lampard has delivered a “nothing major” injury update on Haji Wright, with Coventry hoping to have the USMNT star ready for their season opener.

Ryan Reynolds has helped to launch Wrexham’s "yellow one" away kit for 2025-26, which takes inspiration from the daffodil - Wales’ national flower.

Australia in July reminds James McClean of Wrexham, with the Red Dragons captain left feeling like he has been “travelling 21 hours to go home”.

Tom Brady is being backed to “repeat” his NFL success with Birmingham City as the seven-time Super Bowl winner is “really energetic” and a “purposeful person”.

Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac are being tipped to spend again at Wrexham, with Tony Pulis making a January transfer prediction.

GOAL looks at the biggest storylines among Americans Abroad, including a Premier League matchup of USMNT stars

Frank Lampard would be an ideal successor to Thomas Tuchel when the England manager’s job next becomes available, former Coventry striker Matt Jansen has exclusively told GOAL. The Three Lions legend is in the process of rebuilding his reputation as a coach with Championship promotion hopefuls and could be a contender to step into a prominent international post at some stage.

Ryan Reynolds has explained how he and Rob Mac have changed the mindset of a football club and community in North Wales, with people now proud to say: “I’m from Wrexham.” That was not the case when two Hollywood stars completed a stunning takeover of then National League Red Dragons in 2021, with a record-shattering rise to prominence having been enjoyed since then.

It was always going to be interesting to see which way Frank Lampard would turn when his ill-advised, ill-fated second spell in interim charge of Chelsea came to a sorry end in May 2023. With his managerial reputation in tatters following his January sacking by Everton, would he throw himself at the next Premier League vacancy that cropped up, or would he take stock and aim to come back stronger? Two years on, he will be overjoyed that he pipped for the latter.
