Under the leadership of Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds, Wrexham AFC is terrorizing the National League. The team is speed-running the quest of attaining promotion this season and fans are enjoying this spell of domination. With the historic season on the way for the Welsh club, the team is gaining new fans with exponential growth.

They just won their game today against Dag & Red 4-0. With two stunners from Ollie Palmer, the Red Dragons walked their way to victory. This match proved the point Phil Parkinson made a couple of days ago.

About a month back, Wrexham shocked the entire soccer community with their magical run in the FA Cup. They defeated the second-tier side Coventry and almost repeated the shocker against Sheffield United. These matches not only brought the name Wrexham, immense attention but also put its stars in the limelight. One of the best-performing assets on this dominant side is Paul Mullin.

Is Reynolds’ fame putting Paul Mullin in danger?

In a recent press meet Wrexham’s coach Phil Parkinson talked about the effect Wrexham’s historic performance had on the stars of the club. He especially talked about what Paul Muller is facing in the League. The spotlight that shone on the star’s amazing performances is now showing its negative effect. He also pointed out that somewhere referees are not providing the support required to keep the players safe.

He said, “Mulls was training this morning with his cheek twice the size it should be. I just feel we need some protection for him. My big concern is the referees aren’t giving him that. There is a lot of exposure on the club, and Paul deservedly gets a lot of that spotlight, particularly since the FA Cup games.”

“That intensified the interest in him. But I do feel there is an element where he is being targeted. He comes off the pitch black and blue. The referees have a responsibility to protect players.” His concerns seem viable as the team is not only gaining attention in Europe but worldwide. In the midst of all this chaos, Ryan Reynolds made sure to express his solidarity with his players and support them.

In their last match before today’s win, Wrexham faced Maidenhead United. It looked like a for-sure win until Maidenhead scored in the last minute of regular time to salvage a draw for themselves. The fans were furious, especially with the Wrexham goalkeeper Mark Howard due to his blunder.
