Paul Mullin's next club revealed! Wrexham legend says emotional farewell to Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's side and seals loan move to League One outfit

Wrexham have confirmed that Mullin has joined Wigan on loan ahead of the 2025/26 season. The striker scored a staggering 105 goals in 165 games for the Welsh club as they rose from the National League to the Championship. Last season, however, he was limited to just nine starts.

Mullin underwent surgery on a back injury last summer and struggled to recover, with the striker seeing his minutes limited as a result. Now, he will aim to take his goalscoring prowess to Wigan; they finished 15th in League One last season.

Parkinson said: “I’d like to wish Paul all the best for his loan move. 

“It’s a good opportunity for him to get back to playing regular first-team football and I’m sure he’s going to be a great signing for Wigan Athletic.”

Wrexham play Melbourne Victory in a pre-season friendly in Australia in July as part of a tour Down Under, while Wigan's next friendly comes against Chorley on Saturday.
