Ryan Reynolds’ passion for his acquired club Wrexham AFC since 2020 remains unquenchable. His relationship with the Welsh club has grown and prospered over time as he has played a major role in making sure they are successful. Reynolds has had a passion for the club ever since he first became co-owner. He has done various things such as signing players, renovating stadiums, and attending matches to try to help.
This season, all this hard work paid off as Wrexham won the National League. After 15 years of being stuck in the fifth division, the Welsh side finally earned promotion to the fourth division. While this achievement is huge, the ultimate target is still far. That is reaching the Premier League and Ryan Reynolds just has the right powers in mind to achieve it.

Last year in August, the actor sat down in an interview on Sky Sports alongside Wrexham’s co-owner Rob McElhenney. During the segment, the interviewers asked which Deadpool superpower Reynolds would like to give his players. Ryan, who of course brought big success with the Deadpool films, replied that he would love his players to have is “impenetrable tendons,” that the superhero possesses.
Reynolds also talked about the brutality of soccer. “That is a brutal sport. I mean, watching those players practice is shocking to me,” Reynolds added. “I mean, the practices are brutal, I mean, the speed with which they’re moving, the collisions, it’s just intense”.
He then also jokingly added how reaching Premier League will become easy with the Deadpool superpowers. “So, yeah, I would love them to have the healing factor of Deadpool. If I could figure that out, the Premier League, here we come,” Reynolds concluded. Even after winning the National League, of course, there is still much more that needs to be done to finally reach the highest League. However, Ryan Reynolds wholeheartedly believes that this can be done.
