Sources inside the club reveal that both the owners—Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney—pushed strongly for the lifetime contract, acknowledging Windass as a core figure in Wrexham’s long-term project.
The decision comes after weeks of impressive performances, where Windass consistently delivered match-winning displays and proved pivotal in Wrexham’s climb up the Championship table. His new contract symbolizes stability, ambition, and loyalty at a time when the club continues its fairytale rise through English football.
In his statement, Windass expressed deep gratitude and joy, stating that Wrexham feels like “home” and that he wants to help guide the club to Premier League football before hanging up his boots. Fans erupted across social media, praising the move as “the best signing of the decade.”
With Windass now committed for life, Wrexham’s future looks even brighter, as one of their finest talents pledges to write the rest of his football story in red.
