Regardless of it, the main goal is to compete against the top teams in the Premier League.

Interestingly, the Wrexham AFC has once again come to the spotlight due to the rumored transfer links. While Wrexham is embarked on a long journey, the recent rumored transfer news might bring them one step closer to their goal.

The 29-year-old playmaker, Nick Powell, is officially a free agent from Saturday when his contract at Stoke City expires. Furthermore, there are several rumors about Powell’s move to ambitious Wrexham, which has strong financial support from Hollywood star owners.

However, the ex-Manchester United star was spotted training at his first club, Crewe Alexandra. Powell began his career at Crewe Alexandra, initially as a forward, making his debut at the age of 16. Later, he joined United from The Alex back in 2012 and created a name for himself.

According to North Wales Live report: “Wrexham are negotiating a deal with Nick Powell and talks are at an advanced stage – he is speaking to other clubs though so nothing has been finalized.” Moreover, Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson has no plans to make wholesale changes to his team following promotion from the National League.

However, Powell, if healthy, will prove to be a great asset and bring Wrexham AFC one step closer to the Premier League. Fans are still questioning Nick Powell’s Wrexham move after noticing him at Crewe Alexandra’s training ground.
