Wrexham made it back-to-back Championship victories with a 2-1 win over Preston North End on Monday, but Phil Parkinson's side will be sweating on the fitness of talisman Kieffer Moore after the striker limped off with a suspected injury at the SToK Cae Ras. Goals in either half from Nathan Broadhead and Oliver Rathbone saw the Red Dragons build on their eight-goal thriller against Sheffield United by inflicting the Lilywhites' first defeat since late November.
Kieffer Moore admitted there was a particular satisfaction in his Boxing Day heroics as his brace powered Wrexham to a remarkable comeback against Sheffield United. The Wales international struck twice as Wrexham overturned a two-goal deficit to claim a breathless 5-3 Championship win at the Stok Cae Ras, a contest that swung wildly before settling firmly in the hosts’ favour.
Wrexham’s players could barely contain their pride after producing one of the comebacks of the Championship season, roaring back from two goals down to beat Sheffield United in an eight-goal Boxing Day thriller. From James McClean’s blunt verdict to emotional post-match reactions, the Red Dragons’ belief and unity were on full display at a raucous Stok Cae Ras.
Kieffer Moore was the match-winner for Wrexham as the striker scored twice to sink former club Sheffield United in a thrilling Boxing Day bonanza at the Racecourse. The Blades led 3-1 in the first half following a Moore error in his own box but a stunning comeback saw Phil Parkinson's side steal all three points in a 5-3 victory, which begun with an audacious Patrick Bamford backheel flick for the visitors and ended with Josh Windass powering home a penalty to complete the turnaround.
Wrexham have rejected a shock bid for summer signing Josh Windass as Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac's side make their transfer stance clear ahead of the January window. The 31-year-old became Wrexham's third signing in the summer transfer window after the Welsh club secured their third consecutive promotion to the Championship. The midfielder joined them as a free agent after leaving Sheffield Wednesday.
Wrexham’s Championship campaign has been dealt another blow after James McClean was handed a three-match suspension for violent conduct, following an incident during Friday night’s defeat at Swansea City. The ban removes a key leader from Phil Parkinson’s side at a critical point in the season and represents unwelcome news for club owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac, who have watched their team struggle for consistency since stepping up to the second tier.
Ryan Reynolds has been dubbed “the real version of Ted Lasso”, with the Hollywood superstar overseeing “unbelievable” work at Wrexham alongside co-owner Rob Mac. They have funded a remarkable rise for the Red Dragons, while chasing the Premier League dream, and have built a global fan base courtesy of an award-winning documentary series.
Wrexham have added fit-again former England international Jay Rodriguez to their squad for the second-half of the 2025-26 campaign. The veteran frontman picked up an unfortunate injury in pre-season. He was left out of Phil Parkinson’s 25-man EFL ranks as a result, but has now been drafted in with immediate effect after seeing Elliot Lee head for the treatment table.
Former Wrexham star Steven Fletcher has offered some insight into his time at the club and revealed the "craziest thing" about playing for Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac's side. Fletcher said an emotional farewell to Wrexham back in May after two years with the Welsh side, during which he became a firm favourite and helped fire the club into the Championship.
Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac have sold another stake in Wrexham, but the Red Dragons - and their new investors - are expected to have Hollywood co-owners locked in “golden handcuffs”. Their value to the collective cause is not lost on anybody connected with the Welsh club, with a meteoric rise to prominence being enjoyed under A-list chairmen.
Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac have, ahead of the January window, been given a “go big” transfer warning at Wrexham. Hollywood co-owners have helped to fund a meteoric rise for the Red Dragons, with record-shattering recruitment drives being overseen. They are, however, being advised to steer clear of another elaborate spending spree early in 2026.
Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson offered an emphatic defence of goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo after a late mistake proved decisive in a pulsating 2-1 Championship defeat away to Swansea City. In a fixture loaded with history and emotion, Wrexham’s hopes of claiming a valuable derby point were undone in the closing stages, leaving Parkinson’s side ruing what might have been.
Goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo made a last-gasp howler as Swansea City came from behind to earn a dramatic 2-1 Championship victory over Wrexham in the Welsh derby on Friday evening. Second-half strikes from Zan Vipotnik and Adam Idah helped Vitor Matos' side secure the bragging rights after Phil Parkinson's visitors had taken the lead thanks to an own goal from defender Cameron Burgess.
Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac witnessed pure drama at the Racecourse Ground as late hero Ollie Rathbone smashed home a spectacular stoppage-time equaliser to salvage a 2-2 draw for Wrexham against Watford. The Hollywood owners were left stunned as the midfielder’s long-range strike capped a chaotic Championship contest and reignited the club’s festive momentum.
Oliver Rathbone stole the limelight after coming on as a late substitute as Wrexham held Watford to an exciting 2-2 draw at the Racecourse Ground on Saturday. The Red Dragons scored but they soon gave up on the lead as Watford went ahead just before the break. Phil Parkinson's decision to put Rathbone on the pitch late in the game, however, proved to be a masterclass as his team walked away with a point.
Wrexham’s historic FA Cup third-round home tie against Premier League side Nottingham Forest has been chosen for live broadcast on TNT Sports, marking another major moment in the Red Dragons' rapid rise. Phil Parkinson’s Championship outfit will host the top-flight visitors at the SToK Cae Ras on Friday, January 9, in a nationally televised showdown.
Wrexham spent big in the summer of 2025, but former Red Dragons boss Dean Saunders has told GOAL why Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac will likely make more funds available in the January transfer window. The ambitious Welsh outfit are looking competitive in the Championship, with collective sights locked on winning promotion to the Premier League.
Talks are underway between Manchester United and Wrexham for the two clubs to take part in a headline-grabbing friendly next summer in pre-season ahead of the 2026/27 season. Scandinavia has been touted as a possible destination but nothing is yet confirmed, as discussions continue. The two clubs last faced each other in a friendly in July 2023 in San Diego in the United States, with Wrexham coming out 3-1 winners against a youthful Red Devils side.
Phil Parkinson was hugely disappointed with Wrexham’s performance in a 2-0 defeat at Hull City, with an “honest chat” taking place behind the scenes. The Red Dragons saw a nine-match unbeaten run in Championship competition come to a shuddering halt when paying a visit to East Yorkshire. Parkinson is now demanding an immediate response from his players.
Wrexham's seven-match unbeaten run in the Championship came to an end on Wednesday as they went down 2-0 against a dominant Hull City on the road. The Red Dragons' star forward Kieffer Moore had a night to forget as his two costly misses cost Phil Parkinson's side crucial points. Wrexham have dropped to 14th place in the second tier after the defeat.
Wrexham's Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac have sold a minority Wrexham stake to new Atletico Madrid owners Apollo Sports Capital. The fresh round of investment will provide added funding for the club's stadium redevelopment. The iconic Racecourse Ground is undergoing a serious facelift as the Red Dragons remain focused on fulfilling their dream of competing in the Premier League.
Wrexham made it nine matches unbeaten in the Championship but saw all three points stolen away from them at Deepdale as teenager Harrison Armstrong equalised late on for Preston North End. The Red Dragons had led ever since the fourth minute through a simple Kieffer Moore finish, with James McClean clearing off the line and Arthur Okonkwo making a string of top-class saves before Preston equalised to share the spoils in a 1-1 draw between two sides with play-off ambitions.
Ryan Reynolds, Rob Mac and Wrexham have been warned off a shock swoop for England international Raheem Sterling. The Premier League title winner currently finds himself stuck in the infamous ‘bomb squad’ at Chelsea. A January move is expected to be agreed, as Sterling gets his career back on track, with it being suggested that he could head to the Championship.
