Actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney continue their ambitious efforts to propel Wrexham to the Premier League. The club, currently in England's third division, has secured promising talent by signing striker Sam Smith from Reading for a reported 2 million pounds. This investment aims to enhance their chances of securing a third consecutive promotion.

Adding further depth to their squad, Wrexham also announced the acquisition of seasoned striker Jay Rodriguez from Burnley. Rodriguez, with vast Premier League experience, joins the journey as Wrexham positions itself just two steps away from top-flight football after an impressive climb from the fifth tier.

Despite a recent home loss to Stevenage, Wrexham remains determined, focused on gaining ground in the league standings to earn automatic promotion. However, the competition is fierce, with rivals like Birmingham investing heavily to strengthen their squads, setting new benchmarks in League One transfer records.
