“We Will Do Alright” – Signed With Wrexham for Pennies, Ben Foster Makes Audacious Prediction for Ryan Reynolds’ Side

Ben Foster is a seasoned soccer star with vast experience. He has seen many highs and lows in soccer. In 2005, Foster was part of the Wrexham AFC team, who faced relegation from League One. And 18 years later, he played a significant role in the club’s promotion to League Two. 

Wrexham will play in League Two next season, and the former Manchester United goalkeeper has made massive claims for the club. And he had his reasons for his claims. He has a new deal on the table and is yet to decide. Foster feels the Red Dragons will do great next season.

Ben Foster makes a significant claim for Wrexham

Foster made a U-turn on his retirement and joined the Red Dragons on a short-term deal in March. As the goalkeeper confirmed a few days back, he signed for the club in return for pennies. Foster worked his magic by saving an enormous penalty, helping the club get a promotion to League Two. Recently he was on The Fellas Podcast, where he talked about the clubs’ chances in League Two next season.

Foster said, “I think we will do alright. Like I said, that first day of training, when I got to see them, I thought, ‘Oh! Shoot, there’s no way you’re in the National League.'” “First of all, I thought you could do alright in League One or maybe even in Championship you’d hold around,” he added.

“Wrexham last season beat Coventry in the FA Cup. They held Sheffield United at home to a draw, and they only narrowly lost in the reverse fixture. So, they know how to play these sorts of players, and they would step up their game when they need to. I’ve already seen a stat where Wrexham are favorite to get promoted,” the former United goalkeeper detailed the reasons behind his claim.

And the rivalry will go on

Wrexham had an incredible season that saw them getting automatic promotion by winning the National League title. It wouldn’t have been a fascinating season without Notts County. County emerged as the fiercest rival for the Red Dragons and pushed them all the way through for the title.

Wrexham grabbed the only automatic promotion spot. However, Notts County managed to get the promotion through the playoffs. With County making it to League Two, the fans will continue to see the rivalry between the two clubs. All the eyes will be on the performances of the two clubs and who will make a massive stride next season.
