Wrexham AFC are reportedly preparing a renewed January bid for Premier League midfield sensation Andy Irving, with manager Phil Parkinson strongly convinced that the dynamic midfielder could be the final puzzle piece in the club’s ambitious push for Premier League promotion. The Red Dragons, backed by Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, have already made significant signings this season, but Parkinson believes Irving possesses the quality, creativity, and leadership needed to elevate the squad to the next level.
Irving, known for his exceptional passing range, composure under pressure, and ability to control the tempo of matches, has attracted interest from several Championship clubs. However, Wrexham’s determination—and willingness to match his valuation—places them firmly in the race. Sources around the club suggest that Wrexham are ready to table an improved offer after their previous approach was turned down.
Parkinson has openly praised Irving in recent press briefings, describing him as “the type of player who transforms a team’s entire midfield dynamic.” According to the manager, Wrexham’s promotion charge has been strong but still lacks a natural midfield conductor capable of unlocking stubborn defenses in crucial fixtures.
With the January transfer window fast approaching, the mood around the Racecourse Ground is one of growing excitement. Should Wrexham successfully secure Irving’s signature, it would be a bold statement of intent—one that signals the club’s readiness to compete at the highest level and take a massive step toward their historic EPL dream.
