Ryan Reynolds' jaw-dropping net worth, Wrexham investment, £269m business venture

Ryan Reynolds' ownership of Wrexham alongside Rob McElhenne y has catapulted the Welsh club into the spotlight, with the Hollywood star helping the club towards an expected promotion into the EFL.

The Deadpool actor has brought star quality to North Wales, with his business partner and fellow actor McElhenney. They took over the club officially in the autumn of 2020 and investments have been made both with the playing staff as well as the club's facilities, with a new 5,000 stand being built at one end of the Racecourse Ground.

Their arrival has transformed the club's fortunes, with their first full season resulting in a heartbreaking play-off defeat before rallying this season. The Dragons have been locked in a fierce battle with Notts County to secure the single automatic promotion place in the division, winning a crucial match 3-2 in April thanks to a Ben Foster penalty save in the 95th minute.
