Wrexham AFC ended the season on a high note. The club achieved a massive feat as they clinched promotion to EFL League Two. Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have finally fulfilled their long-awaited dream. The actors reportedly invested £10 million into the club, which proved fruitful. Their remarkable accomplishment was secured by earning a record-breaking 111 points throughout the 46-game season.
With the commencement of the new league, the Red Dragons have already started their preparations. They are looking to cement their chances of winning the fourth division by bolstering their ranks. While the club looks at the transfer window, a former Premier League star has offered himself to the Welsh club.

Former Premier League star Morten Gamst Pedersen has recently expressed his wish to play for Reynolds’ side. In an exclusive interview with SPORTBIBLE, the Norwegian international gave some excruciating details about his career and life. When the topic came up around Wrexham, the midfielder had some words to quote.
“It’s unbelievable what they are doing,” said Pedersen as hailed the remarkable efforts of Reynolds and McElhenney. “I think it’s so cool. Yes, they get promoted and everything, but they are also building a brand from a club that’s quite far down in the system. It shows that if you get the right people and the right attitude, and everybody drags in the same direction, you can do a lot.”

He continued, “They have a great history.” Things became tipsy when the former Blackburn star asked about the prospect of joining the North Wales club. “Yeah, I would love to. Why not? Of course. Maybe if you tag me in a social media post, Ryan Reynolds could read this, and we get a chance to meet…”
It seems Pedersen is quite eager to be a part of Wrexham’s empathic journey and help them clinch multiple promotions. Reynolds, if you’re luckily reading this, then you heard the man himself. While the Norwegian star will be hoping for a phone call, Reynolds is busy reinforcing his team, as he reportedly agreed on a pre-deal with the A-league champion.
