Fans can't believe what Wrexham star Paul Mullin tried to do to Birmingham player as damning footage emerges

Fans are shocked seeing what Wrexham star man Paul Mullin tried to do during a bizarre moment of the match against Birmingham City.

Wrexham faced perhaps their toughest test since earning back-to-back promotions as they played freshly-relegated Birmingham City in a League One clash on Monday night.

In what has been branded the EFL celebrity derby, with Tom Brady, Ryan Reynolds, David Beckham and Rob McElhenney all in attendance, it was Birmingham City that came away with a 3-1 win.

However, the biggest moment of the match came after fans noticed Wrexham striker Mullin trying to do something bizarre during the game.

In the final minutes of the match, the 29-year-old collided with Birmingham left-back Alec Cochrane and, whilst on the ground some fans think they spotted him trying to bite the defender on the calf, before suddenly stopping.

Commenting on a clip of the incident on X, one fan wrote: "Seconds away from being the next Suarez 😂

Another added: "Wrexham forward Paul Mullin went to bite Alex Cochrane’s leg🤯

He definitely remembered that the game was live on tv😳"

While another joked: "Someone needs to check up on Paul Mullin because who’s initial thought after being tackled is “gowan let me take a nibble out of his leg”

Mullin himself took to social media to respond to the clip and explain exactly what had happened.

He wrote: "I know what it looks like.. but it didn’t happen. Although you can tell his leg was thinking about attacking my mouth."

While Wrexham boss Reynolds responded by joking about Mullins' surprise appearance in the recent Deadpool film, writing: "🤣⚔️🤣 #Welshpool"

Despite the disappointing result on Monday, Wrexham are still enjoying a fantastic start to the season after being promoted from League Two.

The Welsh side currently sit atop the League One table with four wins, one draw and one loss.

However, after beating the newly-promoted side, Birmingham are now on the same points as Wrexham and have a game in hand in this early stage of the season.

Charlton Athletic also match the two sides on points in League One, but sit in third due to goal difference.
