In recent times, Wrexham proudly won automatic promotion to EFL League Two. It was a glorious moment for Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. The Welsh soccer club was once in dire need of funds to survive after the COVID pandemic. Then, the Hollywood duo walked into the Welsh soccer club’s fortunes like guardian angels.

Amid the league promotion glory, the co-owners recently tried to sign soccer veteran Gareth Bale as a free agent. However, that conversation didn’t go as expected.

In recent times, Jacob Mendy was in an exclusive conversation with Gianluca Di Marzio. During the interview, they spoke about various aspects of his transfer to the Welsh soccer club. Mendy joined the club prior to the 2022 soccer season. While he is an important influence in the dressing room, Mendy first spoke about the iconic ‘Ben Foster’ save.

He said, “It’s definitely the best memory of this season and the best game I’ve played in my career”. Following that, he spoke about the actual possibility of getting a chance to share the dressing room with Gareth Bale. He said, “It would be a dream to play with him, I would love to. But I don’t know if it will ever happen, I don’t think so. Although here there were several surprises”.

The Wrexham winger then made a shocking demand. He said, “I would love to play with Piqué. Everything I know about football I learned in Spain, there everything relates to football”. The soccer universe was stunned after reading Mendy’s comments. While it’s a monumental ask, it’s definitely not impossible. Currently, Gerard Pique is busy with the launch of the Queens League.
