Wrexham has finally landed in the U.S. with high spirits. Likewise, manager Phil Parkinson shared his team’s experience in the country so far. While praising the “impressive” facilities of the university campus, he said, “All the lads are blown away by it. And we’ve been very well-looked-after as well, I have to say that. They’ve been so welcoming and can’t do enough for us, which is great.”

The Welsh side has made themselves at home as they are using Kenan Memorial Stadium’s facilities. The manager revealed he had a fruitful talk with the players while discussing the university’s success. He revealed that so far, a lot of people are coming to them and asking about the club. Parkinson recalls that a few Americans even came to him to talk about Wrexham during his European vacation with his family.

Parkinson then disclosed having a talk with the club’s advisor, Shaun Harvey, regarding the club’s future plans. He insisted that the team never expected to play in front of 50,000 people. The 55-year-old wants his players to cherish every moment. “You go home and people say, ‘What was the area like?’ And you say, ‘I didn’t see it.’ I don’t want that to happen on this trip. I want the lads to… experience each area we go to, so when we go back, we have a story to tell.” He said, as stated by Chapelboro.com.

Apparently, the US tour is of major significance for Wrexham. The Welsh side will play four matches against Chelsea, Manchester United, LA Galaxy II, and Philadelphia Union II. Hence, the Reynolds’ side must be keen to end the tour on a high note by winning whatever they can.

Not only do the fixtures give them a chance to test the waters before the new campaign, but winning them will also give them a major confidence boost. Likewise, an unfortunate outcome in either of the games may also give them a chance to see what they lack. After all, expectations are high for them, as they are touted to retrace their last season’s footsteps of success.
