Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney revealed they have ‘limits’ on what they can pay Wrexham women’s players
Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are at a crossroads when it comes to paying the Wrexham AFC Women’s team.
The Wrexham women’s team won a Tier 1 license in March 2023, hoping that they would become a semiprofessional football team. By June of that same year, Wrexham announced that 10 women had signed semiprofessional contracts as they joined the Adran Premier League — the top women’s football league in Wales.
“This is an historic moment, not just for the Football Club but for women’s football in North Wales and shows just what young girls in our region can aspire to,” Gemma Owen, head of women’s football operations, said at the time. “All 10 players signed up so far have proved themselves on and off the pitch, not just as fine footballers but as great role models too and are fitting pioneers.”
As a semiprofessional team, the women also secured more money and resources. Ker also explained that if the team won the Adran Premier during the 2023-2024 season, they would go into the Women’s Champions League.
