<p>The Welsh club’s first round FA Cup game that they won 3-0 against Oldham Athletic was shown on ESPN2 and ESPN+.</p>



<p>The interest in the Welsh club has skyrocketed after actors <a href="https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com/news/ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-buy-172703418.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney purchased the club back</a> in November 2020.

It was <a href="https:\/\/worldsoccertalk.com/news/reynolds-mcelhenney-get-wrexham-stadium-expansion-approval-20221108-WST-407292.html">recently reported</a> that 5,500 seats will be added at the historic venue after the club got approval from the Wrexham County Borough Council. </p>



<p>Earlier this year in August, US TV channel FX premiered a documentary series on the club titled “<a href="https:\/\/worldsoccertalk.com/2022/08/22/where-to-find-welcome-to-wrexham-on-tv/">Welcome to Wrexham</a>”, as told by the owners, Reynolds and McElhenney.
