Conor McGregor donates €14,000 to local charity following Wrexham visit

Conor McGregor has donated nearly €14,000 to a local charity following the launch of his stout ahead of Wrexham's crunch match against Yeovil on Tuesday.

After opening his pub the Black Forge Inn, McGregor has exclusively sold his own brand Forged Irish stout in his own premises.

But the Dubliner recently sold cans of the drink and is planning on a large-scale release of the stout later this year.

The UFC star had a team of his travel to Wrexham ahead of their game against Yeovil on Tuesday to sell pints of the stout and had previously donated £10,000 (€11,350) to local charity Your Space Wales.

And McGregor's stout sales raised some £2,200 (€2,500) and donated nearly €14,000 to the charity.

Wrexham themselves are on the verge of promotion to the football league and one more win in their final two games will ensure promotion to League Two.

The club have become high profile ever since being taken over by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.
