In the first week of the winter transfer window, a variety of names have been linked with the Wales team. With several strikers being mentioned recently, it is evident that the club is looking for a new number nine. Amid the rumors surrounding potential transfers both in and out of the team, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have already made sure that the resources are available to Phil Parkinson, the league's manager, allowing Wrexham to spend freely in the winter transfer window, according to a statement he gave to CBS Sports Golazo .
In an interview with CBS Sports Golazo, Phil Parkinson said, “We're always looking to see if a player comes available who we think can improve us.” During the same interview, Parkinson praised Reynolds and McElhenney for their trust in his decisions and for supporting his vision for the league’s success. After making significant changes to the squad last summer following their promotion, Parkinson indicated that he would not shy away from making further reinforcements in January—and several names are already emerging.

Wrexham is targeting key players for the upcoming season
Reports suggest that Wrexham could be interested in Luton Town forward Cauley Woodrow, a former England U21 international. The ex-Premier League striker has only started once for Luton in the Championship this season, and according to journalist Peter O'Rourke, a move to Wales could very well happen. The league has been linked with Leeds United's Patrick Bamford for the transfer window as well.

They have already secured Ryan Barnett and Ollie Palmer with fresh contracts this season. However, Wrexham runs the risk of losing Aaron James and Harry Ashfield for free in 2025. Sam Dalby, meanwhile, is expected to stay at Dundee United until the end of the season, though that could change depending on his form. Wrexham is also eyeing Manchester United’s Ethan Wheatley as a potential addition to boost their attack. Whether or not these moves will ensure Wrexham’s next promotion, the league is certainly positioning themselves for success.
