THE BIGGER PICTURE
Lee dropped down three divisions when he joined Wrexham from Luton Town in 2022, and he's been a hit at the SToK Racecourse ever since. With Wrexham currently fighting for promotion to League One, owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have shown their commitment to keeping hold of their best players.
DID YOU KNOW?
Lee is the son of former Charlton, Newcastle and England midfielder Rob Lee. He began his career at West Ham, but never managed to become a first team regular at the east London club, and went on to play for Barnsley before joining Luton in 2017.
