After the latest Mint Mobile sale, Ryan Reynolds’ net worth was bolstered to $350 million. He received a surplus of funds after having a spectacular deal by selling his company. Therefore, the owners of Wrexham have funds to improve the squad. With Rob McElhenney being the co-owner, the duo has a combined net worth of $400 million, which will help them get in the right soccer players.
Yesterday, they announced the signing of former England international goalkeeper Ben Foster to solidify their promotion chances. Thus, with enormous funds, they can improve the squad by adding more free-agent players.
With the incredible amount of players in the market, there is a list of free agents that the club can sign. Let’s look at them!

Free agents Wrexham can sign after the Ben Foster deal
Many players can prove to be the difference. However, some English Premier League players can make a significant difference. One of them is former Tottenham Hotspur left-back Danny Rose. Several years earlier, he was dubbed to be the best left-back in the league.
However, injuries derailed his career, and his time at Watford proved fruitless. The left-back would provide the thrust needed for the team to move forward and become a statement signing. It would take a hit on the wage bill, though!
Switching our attention to another former Spurs player, Tom Carroll, who had a sudden downfall because of injuries. Fans rated him highly during his North London days as the composed midfielder picked his passes to perfection. But as it is with most injured players, he is out of contract, and Wrexham could pick him up to make them a solid side.
Moving aside to another midfielder, a newly promoted club would need vast experience to keep the ship afloat. Leaders are underrated in the sport of soccer. But former Leicester City and Chelsea player Danny Drinkwater would provide the assurance.
Having won the Premier League title with Leicester in 2016, Drinkwater is a solid midfielder. His tenacity on the ball and leadership qualities probably keeps them up if they are promoted to the EFL League Two.
Ryan Reynolds has options to choose from
After these three players, there are two of them who can make a difference. Fans of Liverpool would know Jordon Ibe’s technical dribbling and monstrous pace. Although his career is on the brink of going unnoticed, Ibe is 27 and could become a key player for Wrexham.
The tricky winger can dust off his boots and look to reinvigorate his career. He would probably become a key player for the team, and Wrexham forward Paul Mullin would lick his lips with the service into the box.

Finally, Fraizer Campbell. Once dubbed Manchester United’s hottest prospect, Campbell slid off the top charts to scoring goals for fun in the Championships. Hence, the 35-year-old could have his last dance with Wrexham and help Mullin score goals.
