Wrexham have enjoyed a meteoric rise under the ownership of Hollywood duo Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac.
The North American actors have taken the Red Dragons from the fifth tier of English football all the way to the Championship.
In the most recent season, Wrexham finished seventh in the second tier, which was the highest league position in the team’s entire history.
But even after a record-setting campaign, Reynolds and Mac still have ambitions to take the club to the next level, as CEO Michael Williamson has now explained.
Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac remain committed to Wrexham as they eye promotion
As quoted by Leader Live, Williamson stressed how both Rob and Ryan remain firmly committed to the club and have ambitions to take Wrexham to the Premier League, improve the stadium and invest in long-term success.
He said: “I think they’re incredibly proud. They’re not complacent by any means, I hear that on a weekly basis from them.
“They remain extremely emotionally invested in the football club. They have enjoyed great moments of success, they suffer when we don’t perform well and they’re excited when we’re doing the extraordinary.
“Fortunately for them and for us, we’ve done more extraordinary than not performing well over the last several years.
“But they are absolutely focused on what their ambitions are of arriving to the Premier League, to improve the stadium, to invest in the long-term success of the club while also trying to make a positive difference in the wider Wrexham community.
“There are fundamental promises of protecting the heritage, reinforcing community values and growing global exposure for the club but also creating a winning culture like those founding themes and principles which haven’t wavered.”
Wrexham are now gearing up for a second season in the Championship, where their chances of promotion should increase.
They missed out on a play-off place by just one position in the 2025/26 campaign.
However, the EFL have increased the number of play-off places from four to six in 2026/27, meaning Wrexham can finish as low as eighth and still have a chance of making it into the Premier League.
The league may be tougher this time around, given that the likes of West Ham and Wolves have been relegated, and top clubs such as Southampton and Middlesbrough will be keen to right the wrongs of last term.
But as long as Reynolds and Mac keep supporting the Dragons as they have done for the last several years, it does feel like only a matter of time before they secure a place in the top flight.
