Welcome to Sydney: Ryan Reynolds’ Welsh soccer team set for Australian tour
@Source: brisbanetimes.com.au
Previously beset by financial issues, Reynolds and McElhenney bought Wrexham in 2020 and helped it attract a global following through their Disney+ series Welcome to Wrexham, which documents the club’s rise from the English fifth division and the actors’ crash-course education in how much the game and the club matter to its locale.
While it’s unclear if Reynolds and McElhenney will accompany the team on its forthcoming tour, it’s expected that camera crews for Welcome to Wrexham will travel to capture footage for the show. Wrexham is also set to play a match against Melbourne Victory at Marvel Stadium and another in New Zealand - likely against Auckland FC.
Welcome to Wrexham has significant viewership in Australia, ranking as the third-largest audience in the world for the series, behind only the United States and the United Kingdom.
This will be just the second time Wrexham will have embarked on a major pre-season tour abroad; they played sold-out friendlies in the USA against Chelsea and Manchester United ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.
