Football fans, have you been following Wrexham’s incredible journey? With the backing of Hollywood heavyweights Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, this club has skyrocketed through the ranks, and their success is having a ripple effect on Welsh football.
Craig Bellamy is all in on Wrexham’s remarkable rise. The former footballer and current Wales boss believes the impact of Reynolds and McElhenney could boost the national team. Recently, Wrexham signed Wales internationals Danny Ward, Kieffer Moore, and Nathan Broadhead. Although Ward and Broadhead are benched due to injuries for Wales’ upcoming World Cup qualifier in Kazakhstan, Moore might make history by becoming the first Wrexham player to represent Wales since 2008.
Bellamy says, “We’re all captivated by Wrexham’s journey. Their success is a win for Welsh football, and I hope it inspires young talent across the nation.” With notable performances already, Moore has netted four goals in five games since joining from Sheffield United. He scored again on Saturday, helping Wrexham clinch their first Championship victory at Millwall. Moore is thrilled with his new club, saying, “Loving every moment. This rise is monumental and a joy to be part of.”
Both Bellamy and Moore see the potential for more Welsh talent to shine at Wrexham. Bellamy is particularly excited about Broadhead’s chances for regular play, noting his potential for growth. He’s also delighted to see Ward thriving at his hometown club, remarking on the goalkeeper’s mental strength after a challenging spell at Leicester.
Moore adds, “Being part of this journey can only be positive for Welsh football, creating partnerships on the pitch that strengthen our national side. Playing alongside Broady at Wrexham is invaluable.”
Wrexham’s ascent isn’t just a fantastic football story—it’s a beacon for the future of football in Wales. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
