Man Utd and Chelsea set for pre-season friendlies against Ryan Reynolds' Wrexham

Non-league hopefuls Wrexham are set to play both Manchester United and Chelsea in friendlies in the United States this summer.

Wrexham are co-owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, who are trying to lead them out of the National League. They need to finish top of the table to gain automatic promotion to League Two and the English Football League (EFL).

The Welsh side are currently second in the National League - five points behind leaders Notts County with two games in hand. Even if they fail to gain promotion this season, they are set to be handed some glamorous friendlies against two Premier League giants.
