Wrexham CEO Michael Williamson opened up about the club's ambition ahead of the 2025-26 Championship season as he revealed when the club's rivals should start worrying about them. The Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney-owned club are eyeing a fourth consecutive promotion as they aim to fulfil their dream of competing in the Premier League.
Wrexham have confirmed the arrival of New Zealand international Liberato Cacace, who has committed to a three-year contract that will keep him at the club until 2028. The 24-year-old left-back becomes the latest addition to Phil Parkinson’s squad as the club builds toward a historic campaign in the EFL Championship.
Ashley Young has been tipped to be a "really good acquisition" by Stuart Pearce as the Premier League legend has hit free agency after ending his contract at Everton. The English defender finds himself on the lookout for a new club and Wrexham have been tipped as a potential destination, as he is not entertaining retirement just yet.
Wrexham CEO Michael Williamson is burning the midnight oil Down Under as the Red Dragons are working aggressively behind the scenes to build a super-squad ahead of plying their trade in the Championship. Currently on tour in Oceania, the Welsh side have already made headlines with their pre-season outings, but the more significant action may be happening off the pitch, particularly in hotel rooms, meeting rooms and late-night phone calls.
Wrexham are on the verge of completing a record-breaking €2.5 million (£2.16m) deal for New Zealand international Liberato Cacace, with co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney green-lighting the ambitious move. The Empoli left-back is set to become the club’s most expensive signing, surpassing the £2 million the Red Dragons paid for Sam Smith in January.
Wrexham are looking to bolster their defensive ranks for the Championship with two signings, including a £3 million move for Hull City man Alfie Jones.
Ashley Young could be set for a surprise return to his boyhood club Watford, with the Championship side looking to re-sign the 40-year-old veteran. The former Manchester United and England star is a free agent after leaving Everton and wants to finish his career where it began. Watford have no concerns over his age or fitness, and talks are reportedly ongoing.
Wrexham are reportedly set to seal a permanent transfer for New Zealand international Liberato Cacace from relegated Serie A side Empoli. The versatile defender is expected to move to the Welsh side for a base fee of €2.5 million (£2m/$3m), with additional bonuses attached, as revealed by Gianluca di Marzio.
Former Wrexham goalkeeper Ben Foster has spoken highly of the club's Hollywood co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, crediting them for making the Red Dragons "shinier" without losing their "essence". Foster played for Wrexham across two different spells, with his first stint coming back in 2005 when he joined the club from Stoke City on a loan deal.
