Wrexham AFC has been preparing intensively for the preseason trip to the US. The club will play four games on the tour against Chelsea, Manchester United, LA Galaxy II, and Philadelphia Union II. These are massive games for the club ahead of their EFL League Two opener against MK Dons on August 5.

All eyes will be on Paul Mullin for the next season. The Reds’ talisman has been in scintillating form over the last three years and will again lead the frontline for the club. Meanwhile, his performances have garnered the attraction of many, calling for his inclusion in the Wales national team squad. And now, Mullin divulges his Wales dream ahead of the US tour.

Wrexham AFC superstar dreams of playing for Wales

Super Paul Mullin made a switch to Wrexham in 2021. The new owners, Ryan Reynolds, and Rob McElhenney, lured the striker to play in the fifth tier with a significant project in the pipeline. Liverpool-born Mullin accepted the offer and joined the Red Dragons. He left Cambridge United after firing them to the third division and winning the Golden Boot of EFL League Two for the 2020-21 season.

His decision raised the eyebrows of many. But it proved a masterclass move for Wrexham, who rode on his 79 goals over two seasons to win the National League and automatic promotion to League Two. Meanwhile, his performances didn’t go unnoticed. Many believe the star striker should play for Wales national team, who lacks prolific goal scorers. Mullin, who is eligible to play for Wales through his grandmother, also feels the time has come.

Recently while speaking during the preseason, Mullin said, “As I have said before, if I do get called up for Wales, it would be an honor and a privilege, and something I could only dream about. Maybe one day, hopefully, he thinks I can do a job for them, and I would look forward to trying to do something.” He didn’t hide his excitement. However, his focus is on his game amid all the speculations after the Wales manager praised him recently.
