Wrexham defender Jacob Mendy has opened up on what it would be like to play with Gareth Bale as the Hollywood owners refuse to give up hope of attracting the former Wales star out of retirement.
Mendy played 30 times during the record-smashing National League campaign resulting in promotion as title winners two weeks ago. When he signed from this season's play-off semi-final losers Boreham Wood last summer, although expectations were high for Wrexham, he never imagined playing with Bale.
Now, with Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds pulling the strings as owners, the prospect isn't as far away as first thought. The 33-year-old himself has come out to shut down rumours of a return to the pitch but the USA-Canadian first time owners aren't taking no for an answer.
