Wrexham director Shaun Harvey has opened up on the club's decision to pull the plug on a potentially historic £19 million ($24m) move for teenage sensation Sidiki Cherif during the January transfer window. The Welsh side, backed by Hollywood duo Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac, ultimately decided against the record-breaking outlay to ensure they remained within financial regulations.
Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac are reportedly ready to set another new transfer record at Wrexham, with the Red Dragons tabling a £19 million ($26m) bid for Angers striker Sidiki Cherif. The 19-year-old is considered to be a long-term addition in North Wales that can make an immediate impact in the present - with Phil Parkinson’s side taking aim at promotion into the Premier League.
After scoring for the U.S. men's national team during the international break, Folarin Balogun built on that momentum on the club level, scoring his side's only goal in Monaco's 1-1 draw with Angers. The strike is his second of the season, with the first coming back on Aug. 31. Les Monégasques now sit fifth in Ligue 1.
