In the world of soccer, dreams can sometimes be just as powerful as the goals scored on the pitch. And when those dreams are conjured up by none other than Hollywood’s favorite, Ryan Reynolds, you can bet they’re bound to be larger than life. Soccer club Wrexham is now eyeing a sensational move, fueled by Reynolds’ dream.

The soccer club found itself in the limelight after Reynolds and Rob McElhenney took the helm in 2021. A few months back, the Deadpool star stated his dream of having pop icons Beyonce and Taylor Swift grace the stage at Wrexham’s iconic Racecourse Ground. It seems like another higher official at Wrexham aligns with Reynold’s dream.

According to talkSport, Wrexham’s executive director Humphrey Ker recently confessed his admiration for Taylor Swift. He said he had to miss a crucial pre-season game to attend Taylor Swift’s concert. “I got a lot of stick for that from everybody, but my wife had booked tickets very early on, and it was a great surprise and a wonderful thing,” Ker said.

The plot thickened when Ryan Reynolds was photographed with Taylor Swift at an NFL game recently. The blossoming friendship between Reynolds and Taylor Swift, coupled with their interest in team sports, has ignited hope among many Wrexham fans. They think they might soon see the global pop sensation at the Racecourse Ground. It is something Ker looks forward to.

Wrexham chief cheekily said, “In a way, she owes us a trip to the Racecourse because I missed work to come and see her.” Ker reminisced about an encounter with a fan, leading him toward the possibility of meeting Taylor Swift in Wrexham’s local pub. However, it ultimately turned out to be untrue. Meanwhile, fate led Ker toward another Hollywood star, which left him delighted and surprised.

Though there was no Taylor Swift in the local pub, Paul Rudd, the Ant-Man himself, was sitting there. “She wasn’t but Paul Rudd was in The Turf – a very worthy substitute. Antman, it’s always good to have an Avenger in your football club if you can get one,” Kerr said jokingly.
