“We Look at the Entire Club as a Massive Investment” – Days After Ending 15-Year Exile, Rob McElhenney Dreams of Owning Wrexham With Ryan Reynolds ‘For the Rest’ of Their Lives

Just three weeks after the historic win that saw Wrexham AFC‘s promotion to the EFL League Two, Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney continue to dedicate themselves to their ownership of the team. Since the dynamic duo began their journey as owners in 2020 with an ambition of transforming Wrexham, the club has gone from a struggling club to league champions.

The outcome of their newfound mission was brought to fruition on April 22, 2023, with their win over Boreham Wood. In a recent podcast, McElhenney discussed the strategy and vision he and Reynolds share for the future of Wrexham.

Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds’ vision for Wrexham

The pair recently sat down in a podcast to talk about Wrexham. During the podcast, Rob McElhenney shared some of the pair’s vision for the Welsh club. McElhenney stated the focus of the pair would be on building a “sustainable business.”

The Always Sunny in Philadelphia actor notably shared the statement, “We look at the entire club as a massive investment and an investment in the club, investment in the town and an investment in the future.” He further added, “And neither one of us wants to put ourselves or the club in a position where anyone, including us, are just writing checks to keep the business of the club afloat.”

The broadcaster probed for a true indication of the possibility of new investors in the future for Wrexham. He received further declarative from McElhenney that he and Reynolds wish to establish their role in the ownership of the club for the “rest of their lives.”

The Hollywood duo hopes to continue acting as owners

Expressing the commitment they have to the club, McElhenney went on to say that they want to continue to be owners of the club as long as possible. He noted, “So everything that we’ve done from the very beginning is to ensure that no matter who comes in and hopefully it’s us for the rest of our lives, that we are building a sustainable business”. It is clear that McElhenney and Reynolds share a passion for the team, and that the pair are not just looking for a quick buck, as evident from their earlier statement.

Reynolds and McElhenney have broken the 15-year cycle of Wrexham struggling in the National League. It looks like the Hollywood duo is working hard to establish a sustainable business plan for the club. With their unwavering dedication to the club, the possibilities for a more successful future seem more realistic than ever.
