Transfer targets

An offer of $21.5M for Josh Sargent

Wrexham have gone to Toronto FC with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Transfer targets

Too dear: Wrexham walk away from Marcus Edwards

$26.2M was the most the club would pay and Burnley were asking for more. Deals like this are revived in the last week of a window roughly half the time, and everybody involved knows it.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Ernest Muçi

Wrexham asked and Trabzonspor said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market

Wrexham turn down Crewe Alexandra for George Thomason

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Boardroom

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Wrexham

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Match

A bad afternoon for Wrexham against Birmingham

1‑2 to Birmingham, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Anthony Patterson

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market

Wrexham promote Oliver Young from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Oliver Young has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market

Liam Jackson steps up from the Wrexham academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Liam Jackson has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

In brief
