Wrexham stars name surprise reward they want from Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney if they achieve promotion

Two Wrexham stars have named the surprise reward they want from Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney if they secure promotion this season.

Wrexham have enjoyed a meteoric rise since Hollywood stars Reynolds and McElhenney bought the club in early 2021, earning back-to-back promotions to climb from the National League to League One.

Back in the third tier for the first time in 20 years, Phil Parkinson's side have taken four points from their opening two games of the season.

The Welsh club are among the favourites to gain promotion to the Championship this term, thanks to their squad stacked with players used to playing at higher levels.

Reynolds and McElhenney - whose ownership of Wrexham has been documented in the hit docu-series 'Welcome to Wrexham' - have certainly rewarded their players for success on the pitch.

The pair paid for the squad and staff to enjoy a celebratory trip to Las Vegas earlier this summer after securing promotion, a story that got plenty of traction online.

Two Wrexham stars who enjoyed the post-season trip, Paul Mullin and Elliot Lee, attended the Professional Footballers' Association in Manchester on Tuesday after being named in the PFA League Two Team of the Year.

SPORTbible caught up with the duo on the red carpet, and asked them how they'd like Reynolds and McElhenney to reward them if the 2024-25 campaign ends with a third successive promotion.

"Back to Butlins, we'll go to Butlins this time so that everyone stops speaking about it," Mullin joked.

When asked what the team's ambitions are for the new season, Mullin said: "Just to go out and continue doing what we've been doing for the last three years.

"We've got to go out and make the town proud. Keep doing that and the results will hopefully come on the back of that. Just keep doing what we're doing and be happy doing it."
