Wrexham, a Welsh football club, has recently been making headlines thanks to its new owners, Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. The duo took over the club in 2021 and have since seen tremendous success both on and off the pitch. With three consecutive promotions, Wrexham has risen from the National League to the Championship, and their documentary series, "Welcome to Wrexham," has brought them worldwide fame and attention.
As they prepare for their first season in England's second-tier league, many believe it is only a matter of time before Wrexham is promoted to the Premier League. As a result, the club has been linked to several former top-flight players who are now free agents, including Jamie Vardy, a legend from Leicester City. But the latest news is that Wrexham is also in talks to sign another Premier League icon, just a month after he left Manchester United. This news has been confirmed by the player's agent.
The player in question is Christian Eriksen, who has previously played for Manchester United and Tottenham. According to Eriksen's representative, Martin Schoots, Wrexham has approached the midfielder with an offer. "Wrexham is really upgrading everything, both on and off the field," Schoots said in an interview with the Daily Mail. "It is a hugely impressive project, as you can see from the presence of people like [CEO] Michael Williamson there." He also added that Eriksen still wants to play in a top-tier competition and preferably in Western Europe.
Eriksen has had a successful career so far, with 68 goals and 88 assists in 305 games for Tottenham. He then moved to Inter Milan, where he won the Serie A title, before suffering a cardiac arrest during Euro 2020. However, the 33-year-old made a remarkable comeback less than a year later and played for Brentford before moving to Manchester United, where he won the FA Cup and Carabao Cup under manager Erik ten Hag. But in May, Eriksen confirmed that he would be leaving the Red Devils upon the expiry of his contract, making him a free agent.
Several clubs have expressed interest in signing Eriksen, including teams from Saudi Arabia, the USA, Turkey, Brazil, and Wrexham. However, Schoots has made it clear that any potential move would have to suit both parties. "There are some contacts going on, but it has to suit both sides," he said.
While Eriksen's talent and experience could be a major asset for a second-tier side like Wrexham, former Red Dragons striker Matt Jansen believes that the Dane may not be tempted by a move to north Wales. "There are a few agents that I certainly think would improve Wrexham. Then you also have Christian Eriksen, but I don't think he'd be tempted," Jansen said in an interview with Live Casinos. "Well, Jamie Vardy is one [player]. To help him out, maybe Callum Wilson if you can keep him fit. Or Danny Ings. So they're the type of players that would enhance their chances, but they're an aging squad, and in a year or two, you've got to do exactly the same thing, haven't you?"
Despite the uncertainty around Eriksen's potential move to Wrexham, the club remains determined to continue its impressive rise and attract top talent. And with their new owners and growing success, it seems that Wrexham's future is looking bright.
