Wrexham FC has been making waves in the January transfer window as they gear up to potentially strengthen their squad for a League One promotion push. With the backing of owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, manager Phil Parkinson has the resources to bolster the team’s ranks in the hopes of securing a third successive promotion. Despite a strong position in the league, Wrexham seems keen to add firepower up front, especially with talisman Paul Mullin facing challenges in finding the back of the net this season after a previous injury.
While Wrexham has been known to do business late in the transfer window, speculation has been rife about potential signings in January. Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford is a high-profile name linked with a move to Wrexham, although a recent hamstring injury may complicate any potential deal. Sheffield Wednesday’s Michael Smith, with contract uncertainties, and Leeds’ Joe Gelhardt are also among the targets that Wrexham has reportedly shown interest in to bolster their attacking options.
Another player on Wrexham’s radar is Luton Town forward Cauley Woodrow, a seasoned striker with experience in the Premier League and Championship. The potential addition of Liverpool’s Jayden Danns, who recently scored in the FA Cup, could provide an injection of youthful talent to the squad. Bristol City’s Harry Cornick is also in the mix, as the 29-year-old forward has been made available for a move during the transfer window.
Additionally, Wrexham has been linked with a move for Hibernian midfielder Dylan Levitt, who has faced limited playing time with the Scottish Premiership club. Plymouth Argyle’s Ryan Hardie is another name on Wrexham’s radar, with a reported price tag of £2 million set for the forward. Manchester United’s Ethan Wheatley is also on the radar, with Wrexham and Stockport County reportedly vying for the loan signing of the talented young player.
It remains to be seen which of these players will ultimately don the Red Dragons shirt, but Wrexham certainly seems poised to make moves in the transfer market to strengthen their squad for the challenges ahead. As fans eagerly await potential signings, the club’s ambitious owners and manager are undoubtedly focused on enhancing the team’s prospects in their bid for promotion. Stay tuned for more updates as the January transfer window progresses, and Wrexham’s squad takes shape for the remainder of the season.
