Wrexham have invited a player who no longer plays for them to join their club party after promotion to League One.

The current Red Dragons squad and coaching staff are currently in Las Vegas, celebrating their second consecutive promotion.

Wrexham will start life in the third tier next season for the first time since the 2004/05 season, having spent 15 years outside of the EFL pyramid entirely.

Reynolds and McElhenney took over the club shortly after they had finished 19th in the Covid-curtailed 2019/20 National League season - had the season ended, there was a very realistic chance that the club would have been relegated.

As a result, the Hollywood pair made a slew of signings in the 2021 summer transfer window as they prepared for their first full campaign at the helm.

The first of those signings was forward Liam McAlinden, who joined the Welsh club on a free transfer from Morecambe.

McAlinden played 33 games in the 2021/22 season, scoring one goal as Wrexham finished eighth in the National League.

He only played 11 times during the promotion season of 2022/23, and made two appearances for the club in League Two before joining National League North giants Scunthorpe in February.

However, his previous contributions at Wrexham have been recognised - with the club rewarding him with a spot on their promotion party tour.

The Red Dragons are partying in the famous Hakkasan club in Vegas - complete with a big screen showing highlights of their League Two promotion campaign.

It has been confirmed that McAlinden is indeed on the trip, as he celebrates his now former team's incredible achievements.

During the Vegas trip, Wrexham also announced their retained list on Friday morning following the conclusion of the League Two season.

Captain Luke Young and defender Ben Tozer headline a list of eight players that will be released, with Aaron Hayden and Callum McFadzean among those that will also depart the Racecourse Ground.

Veteran striker Steven Fletcher has been offered a new contract, however, while James McClean has had an automatic year's extension to his deal to keep him at the club for next season.
