Wrexham to Face Bournemouth, Chelsea, and Vancouver Whitecaps on North America Summer Tour

Wrexham Announces Exciting Summer Tour to North America

Wrexham, the League One newcomers owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, have announced their summer tour to North America. The team will face off against Bournemouth, Chelsea, and Vancouver Whitecaps in what promises to be an exciting series of matches.

The tour will kick off in the United States, with Wrexham taking on Bournemouth in Santa Barbara on July 20th. They will then face Premier League giants Chelsea in Santa Clara just four days later. The Welsh club will then travel to Vancouver to play against the Major League Soccer side Whitecaps, in Reynolds’ hometown.

Manager Phil Parkinson expressed his excitement about the upcoming tour, stating that last year’s US tour was a fantastic experience for the players and staff. He also mentioned the opportunity to meet new supporters and build for the upcoming League One season.

Wrexham’s strong American support can be attributed to their celebrity owners and the popular documentary series ‘Welcome to Wrexham’. Reynolds, who hails from Vancouver, expressed his enthusiasm for the match against Whitecaps, jokingly stating that he will be a “very friendly ‘neutral’ even if I will be screaming for a Paul Mullin hat-trick.”

In addition to the men’s team tour, the co-chairmen have confirmed that the Wrexham women’s team will also tour the United States this summer, with more details to be announced soon.

Overall, Wrexham’s summer tour to North America is shaping up to be a thrilling experience for both the players and fans, as they look to continue their success on the pitch and expand their global footprint.
