The Wrexham story is one for the ages. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have transformed the club from the perils of extinction to a soccer club with a lot of promise. As they prepare for EFL League Two for the coming season, Ryan Reynolds is busy convincing players to join the club. Out of them, one prominent name to come out is Gareth Bale. However, there are complications to that deal. Bale retired from soccer to focus on golf and looks to stick to his decision.
Ryan Reynolds looked to bring him by offering Rob McElhenney’s “shaven back.” Sky Sports correspondent Rob Harris discussed the finer details of the potential signing in a tweet stating Bale’s decision to potentially sign for the club. But for now, it looks unlikely.

According to the tweet, Bale mentioned, “No I don’t think so.” He spoke at the Sport Industry award ceremony as Laura Woods asked him his decision. Signing him looks bleak for now. It all started when Rob looked to convince Bale to have a golf match. And during that moment, he explained about convincing the player to sign for the club. To that, Bale replied, “Depends what course.”

The fun and games started right after that. Ryan got into the action and tweeted, “I will shave a professional-grade golf course into Rob’s back if you’ll give Wrexham a season.” Twitter exploded upon hearing the hilarious thread. But Bale’s decision to leave soccer is intact. At the end of his career, his love for golf engulfed him.
The duo is looking for other prospects to increase the quality at Wrexham. But having Bale would have done wonders for the club.

Merchandising boost from a legendary player
Signing Bale would have done wonders for the club. He won many accolades in his career, including five Champions League, won the FIFA Club World Cup four times, and won La Liga three times. With the wealth of experience he has, the signing would be brilliant. Wrexham would have a world-class player in their ranks. He can provide a claiming influence on the players and motivate them to greater heights. The club can make money out of extravagant merchandising sales. It could be a source of income for the club.
The singing of Bale would be sensational for the whole league itself. But, for that to happen, Bale must un-retire. Now wholly focused on golf, the Welsh legend will have a lot of convincing to do to play soccer, yet again.
