Welsh football has been rocked by a stunning development as Wales assistant captain and Tottenham Hotspur legend Ben Davies has reportedly reached a paper agreement with Wrexham co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney to acquire 20 percent of the club’s shares.
The agreement, understood to be in principle and subject to final legal approvals, represents a major moment in Wrexham’s modern rise. Davies, one of Wales’ most decorated players of the Premier League era, is believed to be motivated by more than just business. Sources close to the deal suggest the defender sees this move as a long-term commitment to Welsh football, community development, and Wrexham’s ambitious climb up the English football pyramid.
Since Reynolds and McElhenney took over, Wrexham have transformed from a struggling lower-league side into a global football story. The addition of a respected, active international footballer like Davies adds football credibility to an ownership group already known for bold vision and commercial growth.
Davies’ influence is expected to extend beyond the boardroom. His experience at the highest level of English and European football could play a key role in shaping recruitment strategy, youth development, and the club’s competitive culture as Wrexham push deeper into Championship and Premier League conversations.
For supporters, this potential partnership feels symbolic. A Welsh captain investing directly into a Welsh club with global momentum reinforces the sense that Wrexham’s project is no longer just a fairytale—but a serious football institution in the making.
If finalized, this deal could mark the beginning of a new era where elite players help redefine club ownership from the inside out.
