Christine Sinclair recently received a heartwarming message from her country’s star, Ryan Reynolds. The Deadpool actor had prepared a video message for the women’s soccer icon, which she saw during an interview with Andi Petrillo at CBS Sports. After insisting she wouldn’t be able to watch the video, Sinclair whispered, “I love Wrexham!” 

Then, she played Reynolds’ message, where the actor said, “I just want to wish you all the best, all the love and all the luck in retirement. Well, it’s not really retirement. Moving on in your career to Wrexham. It’s huge for the town, for the club. I think that you are going to be probably the key difference-maker going forward up there in North Wales.” 

Additionally, Reynolds then expressed his heartfelt thanks to Sinclair. “I wanted to thank you for inspiring me, my kids, kids all over Canada and the world. Young, old, middle-aged. You’re incredible and you deserve all the applause that hands could possibly give. Sending you tons of love,” he concluded. 

It seems the Wrexham co-owner doesn’t want Sinclair to stop, as he openly offered her a job at Wrexham. But what was her response to this?
