Ryan Reynolds is set to invest his $350 million fortune into another football club following his success as part-owner at Wrexham.

Reynolds, alongside fellow Hollywood A-lister Rob McElhenney, acquired Wrexham for £2 million back in February 2021, with the club enjoying great success under their ownership.

The club have secured back-to-back promotions during his tenure as they aim for a third consecutive promotion to the Championship this season.

The Welsh outfit currently occupy third place in League One and are in contention to earn automatic promotion.

Amid Wrexham's success and plot for yet another promotion, Reynolds is set to purchase a stake in Colombian team Equidad FC as part of a £11.8 million takeover.

As part of the Tylis-Porter investment group, which also features the likes of baseball star Justin Verlander and former Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil, Reynolds is set to invest in the club alongside actress Eva Longoria.

On X, the club, who are based in Bogota, wrote: "The presentation of the new owners of Equidad (@equidadfutbol) will be in January. Famous investors from the TYLIS-PORTER group like EVA LONGORIA, RYAN REYNOLDS, and JUSTIN VERLANDER (baseball player) will be in Bogotá, the team's headquarters. Carlos Zuluaga will continue as president indefinitely."

It's unknown as to how much money Reynolds will be pumping into Equidad, but the total figure paid that will be paid by the Tylis-Porter group is believed to be in the region of £11.8 million.

What's more, the team could be relocated from Bogota to somewhere else in Colombia.

The reason behind the move is because generating new supporters within the capital city has been difficult for Equidad, who are also competing with Club Deportivo Los Millonarios and Independiente Santa Fe.

Colombian reporter Felipe Sierra said: "Not only is the name change being evaluated, but also the change of city. It is one of the alternatives, although the name is almost a fact. Next week the document has to be signed to make the transfer official."
