Wrexham owner Ryan Reynolds trolls 'tiny club' Liverpool in joke hidden by FIFA

Wrexham AFC owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have described Liverpool as a 'tiny, tiny club' in a light-hearted joke in FIFA 23.

Wrexham are currently the only club below the fourth tier of English football available to use in FIFA 23, with the Welsh side introduced into the game in FIFA 22 in the Rest of the World League. This came after the club was bought by Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney back in 2020, with EA Sports and Wrexham agreeing on a multi-year innovation partnership.

FIFA 23 is the second consecutive year Wrexham have been in the game, and an in-game easter egg has been discovered where the two owners have had voiceovers inserted into the game when Wrexham take on Liverpool. The hidden joke comes during the handshakes between the two sides prior to the start of the game when you play Liverpool vs Wrexham in the kick-off game mode.
