ACTRESS Eva Longoria is to star in a Welcome to Wrexham spin-off about the Mexican football club she co-owns.
Bienvenido a Necaxa (Welcome to Necaxa) will follow the fortunes of the 102-year-old Liga MX side.
The Desperate Housewives star invested in them four years ago.
Wrexham FC co-owners and Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney followed suit last year.
All three are expected to appear in the programme.
American Eva told GQ Mexico magazine: “I want people to see the good things in this country.
"I want to focus on this.
"And soccer, culturally, is one of those things.”
Eva joined pal Rob at a Wrexham game at the start of last season.
Welcome to Wrexham has been renewed for a fifth series.
It will follow the team’s first season in the EFL Championship following their third consecutive promotion.
