Ryan Reynolds’ Wrexham Co-owner Rob McElhenney Throws Shade at Premier League Leaders Arsenal and Manchester City – “Not Sure Who Those Clubs Are..”

Wrexham AFC, co-owned by Ryan Reynolds, has been in dominant form this season. Currently, they sit atop the table in the Vanarama National League. The league leaders automatically qualify for Football League Two at the end of the season. But apart from these, the third oldest club in the world is leading in a unique stat in the English soccer pyramid, leaving behind the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City.

Club’s co-owner Rob McElhenney has praised the club for this achievement. He also praised their championship rivals in the Vanarama National League, Notts County, who also made the list of a unique stat and are third behind Wrexham and Arsenal.

Wrexham AFC leads in a unique stat in English soccer

Wrexham is a non-league soccer club and is eyeing a promotion to league soccer by making it to League Two, the fourth division of the pyramid. Recently, a soccer stat platform shared a unique stat for the top five tiers of English soccer, and Wrexham AFC leads that stat.

The club, co-owned by Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds, is currently top of the list with 2.47 points per game.
