Big transfer coup for Wrexham as defender leaves Wayne Rooney's Plymouth & drops down a division to join Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney project

The 28-year-old centre-back has left Wayne Rooney's side to play for Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's Red Dragons in League One, dropping down a division after helping Plymouth survive relegation from the Championship last term. He has put pen to paper on a three-year deal that will run until the end of the 2026-27 season.

Sarr, who joined Plymouth in 2021, was part of the squad that gained promotion to the Championship in 2023. Last season he appeared in 31 matches across all competitions, including 28 in the league, while he scored one goal for Argyle.

After signing for the Welsh club, the defender told their official website: "It’s a unique club for this day and age, but the main thing that drew me in was that I want to get another promotion and be a part of history. I’ve had good experiences that put me in good stead to go and help the team and help the players around me. I got promoted out of League One with Plymouth, and those sorts of experiences I hope will help me have a good season here too."

Phil Parkinson's men had a successful pre-season in the United States where they remained unbeaten, including an impressive draw against Premier League side Chelsea. They will play their final friendly match on Saturday against Fleetwood Town at SToK Cae Ras before their League One campaign begins with a home clash against Wycombe on August 10.
