The Wrexham Courier
Transfer targets23 Aug 2027
Wrexham agree $44.2M for Josh Sargent
The clubs have shaken hands with Liverpool; the player has not yet. Personal terms are next, and personal terms are where more deals die than anybody prints.

John Egan damages knee ligaments — 103 days out
The words a physio says slowly. 103 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.
Market23 Aug 2027
Wrexham turn down Stoke City for Marcus Edwards
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.
The dugout23 Aug 2027
Charlie Kelman keeps the receipts
“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Wrexham may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.
Match21 Aug 2027
The wait goes on for Wrexham
4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.
Match21 Aug 2027
The goals have deserted Wrexham
4 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Wrexham can tell you which week it ends in.
Boardroom23 Aug 2027
Graduation day at Wrexham
5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.
Transfer targets23 Aug 2027
Wrexham rebuffed over Dominic Solanke
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. West Ham United have kept their man, and Wrexham go back to a list with one name crossed off it.
The dugout23 Aug 2027
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.
In brief
- Match A bad afternoon for Wrexham against Stoke City
- Market Peter Carter steps up from the Wrexham academy
- Market Liam Wright steps up from the Wrexham academy
