Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney told to cough up for new Wrexham training ground as Red Dragons continue search for permanent base of operations after NINE years

The Red Dragons have been without a permanent training facility for the last nine years after they lost access to their previous home at Colliers Park. Hollywood duo Reynolds and McElhenney took charge of the team in February 2021 and have heavily invested in the team that secured back-to-back promotions from the National League to League One. Off the field, the American owners have also shelled out multi-million pounds in a new academy training facility and are all set to build a new 5,500-capacity stand at the Racecourse Ground.

Despite the actors' heavy investment in the squad as well as infrastructure, ex-Wrexham boss Brian Flynn has urged them to find a permanent solution to the team's training ground problem as that will help them attract new and quality talents to the club.

Speaking on the Fearless in Devotion fan podcast, Flynn said: "Everything a footballer wants is a proper training ground to turn up to train at every day. We ask players to improve themselves every single day. How can you expect that when you don't know where you're training or what surface it is? It's impossible. The biggest thing that's going to help Wrexham football club is not two centre forwards – the training ground is key."

Phil Parkinson's side, who are currently third in League One, will be back in action on Saturday as they take on Stockport.
