Wrexham will ‘have eyes on’ likes of Kevin De Bruyne & Jamie Vardy as Phil Parkinson addresses links to Man City & Leicester stars after Red Dragons secure promotion to Championship

• Promotion to the Championship is due to Wrexham.
  De Bruyne and Vardy are wildly linked to a Welsh team, and Parkinson claims that the team will be built around “no superstars and no egos”
  Wrexham manager Parkinson has claimed the squad would be fashioned by a “no superstars and no egos” philosophy when they return to the Championship next season. The Welsh team will play in England’s second division for the first time since 1982 after securing an extraordinary third consecutive promotion.
  In recent years, Wrexham has added players with Premier League experience, including James Among those who have shined at the Racecourse are Ben Foster, Steven Fletcher, and McClean. Parkinson acknowledged that Wrexham “always have our eye on players who are free transfers and are going to be available and will continue to do that.” De Bruyne and Vardy, two prominent Premier League players, will both depart their respective clubs on free transfers at the end of the season due to the Hollywood star power of co-owners Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds.
• “I think it’s interesting because the salary jump is incredible – mind-blowing,” Parkinson continued. Even theleap to obtain players of Championship caliber is costly when moving up to [League One] level, but I don’t think people outside of football fully understand how much the next level is worth. We have always worked to ensure that the club has the proper culture, and I believe that this is crucial: no egos in the dressing room, no superstars. We must attempt to restore that equilibrium. When you go up a level, you constantly need to add extra quality to ensure that the correct people enter the building.
• Although Wrexham plans to make some high-profile additions this summer, players like Vardy and De Bruyne may eventually prove to be financially unaffordable, but the Red Dragons have demonstrated a great deal of pulling power since their glitzy takeover, and they might bring in more players with Premier League experience before playing teams like Leicester, Southampton, and Ipswich next season. McElhenney and Reynolds were ridiculed when they announced their plans to join the Premier League after acquiring Wrexham, but if they can pull off an incredible fourth consecutive promotion in 2025–2026, the team will have the opportunity to compete in England’s top division. Their final League One match is next Saturday against Lincoln City.
