Ryan Reynolds’ Wrexham Is Heading Down Under, Tipped To Battle It Out Against Melbourne Victory

English football team Wrexham, owned by Hollywood duo Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenny, is “highly likely” to play in Australia later this year.

It’s being reported that the Welsh side will play against our A-League side, Melbourne Victory, at Marvel Stadium.

Speaking on Nine News, Tom Morris emphasized how significant this event would be.

“Wrexham, the club that’s been made famous by Ryan Reynolds and a three-series documentary overseas, Wrexham is highly likely to be playing a game in July against Melbourne Victory at Marvel Stadium,” Morris.

“It’s an amazing coup for Visit Victoria. If they can get it done, and I expect they will, this is almost certainly happening.”

Earlier on in their press tour, McElhenney hinted at an Australian visit. “Maybe we go on an international tour with a certain club to a certain continent?” he told Rolling Stone.

Welcome to Wrexham, the American sports documentary television series have made them a largely marketable team.

“Our third biggest… audience for Welcome to Wrexham is Australia. No. 1 US, No. 2 UK, No 3. is Australia, which I find fascinating.

“There is a lot of love for Wrexham. Who knows? Maybe we might bring the club to you instead of the other way around.”
