Days After Receiving $925,000,000 Target, Wrexham Owner Ryan Reynolds Presented New Update on Senators Sale Timeline

Wrexham has become a household name in soccer, earning international fame with its revival. And the major credit goes to its new owners, Ryan Reynolds, and Rob McElhenney.

Both have changed the course of the club as they are enduring one of the best seasons so far. They are on the brink of major success as they eye promotion to the fourth division. Moreover, both superstars recently bolstered their CVs after winning their first silverware. All thanks to the Wrexham ladies who were crowned the Genero Adran North champions. Indeed, the story of Wrexham has been a brilliant one so far.

However, it seems Ryan is set to write another tale with a major sports franchise. In the past few weeks, there have been rumors of Ryan Reynolds being interested in buying the NHL side, Ottawa Senators. There are many potential suitors for the team, with the Deadpool star being one of them. And the latter has received a huge update regarding the sale of the team.

Wrexham owner gets a huge update on the NHL side

Everyone is aware of Ryan’s interest in acquiring the Ottawa Senators. However, nothing is certain regarding the process, but the NHL commissioner, Gary Bettman, has revealed that the sale of the Senators is in its second stage. “We’re not on the clock, the goal is to get it right. And if it takes a little longer, it takes a little longer,” Bettman said.

“Once we get to the anointed party, then you’ve got to go through the lawyers doing contracts. And we have a league approval process to get through. And there is still two to three months of work to be done,” he added.

Bettman says it might take a few months, as he has some advice for the Ottawa fans. “So everybody take a deep breath, Sit back and we’ll get through this process and we’re going to come out of it on the other side with a really good strong new owner.”

Bettman even revealed how keen Ryan is to buy the team. “He wants to see his bid through. He wants to take it from beginning to end,” said Bettman. “And as I said I respect his view of the process and I wish him good luck.”

Will Ryan Reynolds buy the Ottawa Senators?

This is a huge update for Ryan, who is eager to buy the Senators. Furthermore, he even received a huge financial boost after he sold his phone company, Mint Mobile to German giant T-Mobile for a massive $1.3 billion. The deal has doubled his net worth, as he received a major boost of $337.5 million pre-tax.

But the competition to buy the team is quite stiff, as the last bid was said to be around $925 million from an unknown party. Many said it was Ryan who made the last-minute bid. However, nothing has been confirmed so far. Nevertheless, the Hollywood star must buckle up if he wants another sports franchise for himself.
