Wrexham AFC owner Ryan Reynolds sold one of his companies for over a billion dollars - which could see the non-league club receive an immense financial injection.
Back in November 2020, Deadpool star Reynolds teamed with Rob McElhenney - famed for creating and starring in ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ - to purchase Wrexham for $2.76million. The duo have become symbols of Welsh football around the world with the publicity and exposure their platforms have bought to the club and the area.
They enjoyed success in the form of the ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ documentary on Disney+ - but Reynolds has now received a spectacular windfall. He cut his first billion-dollar deal after selling wireless firm Mint Mobile to telecoms giant T-Mobile for $1.35billion (£1.12bn).
