Wrexham’s run in the Second Division has been far from their fairytale run in the National League. The club’s season has been incredibly shaky. From the injury of star striker Paul Mullin to Ben Foster’s shocking retirement, the Red Dragons clearly seem to be struggling. Moreover, Wrexham has only managed to clench one victory in its last five fixtures. However, things do not seem to be getting any better for the Welsh side as the club faced another major setback.

Owing to the club’s incredible performance in the National League, fans were eager to see how Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney plan to strengthen the squad further. Much to the fans’ disappointment, the club did not spend much in the transfer market. And recently, Wrexham failed to bring a star player on board.

Wrexham AFC fails to sign this striker despite multiple rumors

Ahead of the club’s 2023-24 season, one of the most anticipated deals was bringing Harrogate star player Luke Armstrong. Moreover, Harrogate’s manager, Simon Weaver, further assured the fans as he revealed how the Red Dragons offered to buy the striker for a really good fee. However, despite all the hype surrounding the same, Wrexham has failed to meet the deadline. The club reported the same on their website that they were unable to complete the required documentation on time. 

This announcement was a significant blow for Wrexham fans around the world. With Paul Mullin’s month-long injury, Armstrong could have been a suitable replacement for the star striker. Meanwhile, on the brighter side, the Red Dragons did secure a good deal on a former Manchester City player. Right before the summer transfer window ended, Wrexham stunned the fans with a last-minute signing of midfielder George Evans. 

Elsewhere, there seems to be another good news for the fans.

After a string of losses in the Second Division, Wrexham finally records a win

Over the past few games, we saw the Red Dragons struggling in their fixtures. With just one win in five games, the fans were completely disappointed. However, Wrexham seems to be getting back on its feet as the team finally recorded a win during their latest fixture against Tranmere. 

The Welsh side beat Tranmere at their home ground, with Aaron Hayden netting a goal to put the visitors in the driving seat. Hayden scored a banger during the 56th minute, helping Wrexham clench their second victory. As of late, the club stands at the 13th position on the league table with nine points.
