Wrexham, the small British soccer club purchased in 2021 by American actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, has won sufficient games this season to advance to a professional league for the first time in 15 years.
Following a 3-1 victory over a team called Boreham Wood on Saturday, Wrexham has gained promotion — the process by which a club moves into a higher quality playing tier — and starting in August will take its place in League Two, which is actually the fourth highest tier in English soccer.
