American Soccer Legend Questions Ryan Reynolds’ $2.5 Million Team Wrexham’s Massive Popularity in the United States Amidst Historic FA Cup Campaign

The popularity of soccer in America is now increasing rapidly. Famous personalities like Serena Williams and Ryan Reynolds are mainly responsible for the popularity of the sport in the US. While the retired tennis superstar is fully invested in NWSL soccer franchise Angel City FC, the Deadpool actor is busy taking care of Welsh soccer side Wrexham AFC.

Even though Reynolds isn’t involved with any American soccer club, he has been successful in pulling a fair bit of American viewership to the Vanarama National League. Considering the buzz around Wrexham, the club attracted a query from an American soccer legend.

American soccer legend publicly questions Wrexham’s popularity!

Former USMNT star Herculez Gomez asked the fans about their take on Ryan Reynolds’ club in recent times. He tweeted, “Would anyone like to share their opinion on Wrexham and the current landscape of American footy..? Can’t seem to find any on here. Weird.”

Gomez used to be a fine striker back in the day in America. He played soccer during a time when Americans didn’t really know what it was. After calling time on his career that he spent largely in America and Mexico, he joined ESPN as a soccer pundit in 2017. Due to his experiences of playing in America, Gomez will seemingly be very well-versed in the sport.

Since taking over Wrexham, Ryan Reynolds has become a favorite of the sport. The club has seen success and its owner has taken an active effort in increasing his knowledge of the sport while taking over Wrexham.

Along with American soccer, Reynolds has also helped Wrexham get a lot of attention. The ancient soccer club has a very rich soccer history that the soccer world eventually forgot over the years.

Ryan Reynolds is a boon to the sport!

Wrexham is shockingly the third soccer oldest professional soccer club in soccer history. They were a top club back in the day but eventually fell down the soccer pyramid due to bad investments. The Welsh side then gradually just became irrelevant in the world of soccer and the Covid pandemic made it even worse for them.

Reynolds has been doing all he can to get this club back to where it belongs. The actor has gone out of his way to get Wrexham AFC premium broadcast coverage on multiple occasions. Currently, the team is on a dream run in the English FA Cup.

Reynolds’ efforts might sometimes go under the radar at times due to his antics on social media. However, the Hollywood star has massively contributed to soccer as a whole and in America as well.
