Wrexham fans are worried as concerning Paul Mullin footage emerges after Salford win

Footage of Wrexham star Paul Mullin after the match against Salford City has got fans worried.

On Tuesday night, Wrexham took on Salford in the group stage of the Football League Trophy at the Racecourse Ground.

Mullin was on the scoresheet as the Red Dragons came away 2-1 winners thanks to a late own goal by Salford man Josh Austerfield.

Mullin was replaced in the 68th minute alongside Anthony Forde and Jacob Mendy.

As the final whistle went, Mullin was seen grimacing as he walked towards the dressing room.

Reacting on social media, one fan said: “Hopefully Paul Mullin is fine in the morning. Grimacing here as players leave the touch line.”

Another tweeted: “Hopefully just sore from his first extended playing time this season, need him out there fully fit on Monday.”

A third fan added: “Yikes. Looks uncomfortable.”

Someone else wrote: “I noticed that, worried for him.”

A fifth commented: “He got injured in a tackle between 2 players secs before he was subbed, when ball went out of play and ref give it to salford. Hopefully he is okay.”

Another fan said: “He might have been better to go straight for a hot shower and massage after getting taken out, but he's a team player and wanted to stay on the sideline while the team was playing.”

Wrexham have enjoyed a brilliant start to the 24/25 League One campaign as they currently sit top of the table after five matches.

Speaking about Wrexham’s start, manager Phil Parkinson said: “Five games in and I know it doesn’t count for a great deal but equally I think we’ve got to be pleased with the work so far this season.

“Having the ability to handle being at the top and that extra kind of expectancy it creates, of course we’ve been there.”

He added: “The run with Notts County in the National League, every game was full on and you had to win every game and had to perform at your best to keep winning.

“So yes, we’ve got a group who are used to living with that and hopefully we’ll continue to thrive under that bit of added pressure.”
