The party fever for Wrexham has ended, and the team is back to basics. They won’t be in the mood to stop the celebrations, but the show must go on. The club is now focused on the new season. After clinching promotion to League Two, the club will be looking to keep its winning momentum on track.

Recently, Wrexham’s rivals, Notts County, signed Derby County’s star, David McGoldrick. The 35-year-old striker has joined the League Two newcomers after seeing his contract come to an end. “We’re over the moon to welcome someone of David’s immense quality and experience,” read the club’s statement.

The Magpies also revealed that his decision wasn’t primarily on a financial basis but rather out of love for the club. McGoldrick had a decent season with Derby, who narrowly missed out on promotion. Overall, he made 45 appearances and scored 25 goals, while also having six assists for the Rams.

McGoldrick has played for many Championship clubs’ including the likes of Ipswich Town, Nottingham Forest, and Sheffield United. It is a homecoming for him as he began his soccer career at Notts. Either way, the new signing will be looking to make an instant impact at Meadow Lane. Moreover, he’ll also be looking to ignite his rivalry with Paul Mullin in League Two.

There was considerable debate about whether Foster was the right fit to continue playing for the club. Nonetheless, the 40-year-old has chosen to stay with the team, and supporters will have the opportunity to see him protecting the goal in the upcoming season. He made this significant announcement on his Instagram account.

Foster expressed his contract extension with the English club through a video, where he played golf and symbolically indicated his commitment. His heroics against Notts County enticed the Red Dragons to keep him at the club for one more season. There is hope that we might witness more of his outstanding contributions in League Two, leading Reynolds toward another promotion.
