With Ample Soccer Experience in Their Bags, Wrexham Owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney Set to Make Debuts With Former World Cup Winner

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have been in the public eye for quite a while. The Hollywood duo went on a dream run with Wrexham during the last season. From shockingly signing Ben Foster out of retirement to taking the squad on a fully-paid trip, Reynolds has done it all. The Deadpool star has truly changed the way how fans perceive a soccer club’s owner.

While probably being the best soccer club owner out there, they will now be making their debut on the pitch as a player!

Interestingly, the two of them will possibly face a former World Cup winner during their first game itself.

When, why, and how is Ryan Reynolds making his soccer debut?

The Hollywood duo will soon travel back to America to compete in a unique soccer tournament. Along with them, there will be 31 other seven-a-side teams competing in North Carolina for the prize worth $1 million. The famous soccer owners have currently registered themselves in Wrexham’s squad for the tournament.

Player-coach David Jones, Paul Rutherford, Mark Carrington, and Shaun Pearson are some of the other names on the Wrexham team sheet. The Welsh soccer club will start its campaign against Como 1907, an Italian soccer club. Surprisingly, a World Cup winner from 2010 still plays for that club! It is none other than Cesc Fabregas.

English Premier League clubs like Wolves, and West Ham will also compete in this tournament. Surprisingly, even Borussia Dortmund has registered for the tournament with big names like Chris Eagles and Stephen Ireland. Ever-famous soccer side, Hashtag United will also participate in the competition. While the tickets are already sold out, the soccer tournament will take place from June 1 – June 4.

After this competition, the Hollywood duo will need to pull their socks up for their next soccer season in the EFL League Two. While it’s a new challenge for the Red Dragons, let’s take a look at Wrexham’s glorious last season.

Wrexham – A soccer dream that came to reality!

Other than the last-minute shivers, Wrexham was quite brilliant during the entire season. Players like Paul Mullin, Ollie Palmer, Ben Tozer, and many more stepped up when their teams needed them the most. Then all of a sudden, Ben Foster appears out of nowhere during the business end of the season. Wrexham finished the season on 111 points from forty-six games.

It was a cut-to-cut battle with Notts Country for the #1 spot till the very end. Soon after the season, the Hollywood duo made a desperate attempt to sign Gareth Bale out of retirement. However, the former Real Madrid winger was quite vanilla about the unique opportunity. The jury is still out on whether Phil Parkinson can help Wrexham step up to the level of the EFL League Two.
