Wrexham to play LA Galaxy II in July pre-season friendly
The Welsh club acquired by actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney in November 2020 got the Hollywood finish they craved last month as they returned to the English Football League as fifth-tier champions with a 3-1 win over Boreham Wood.
Wrexham have attracted plenty of attention in the famously soccer-ambivalent United States thanks to their A-list owners' star power and their popular docu-series Welcome to Wrexham.
"We've enjoyed meeting supporters who have travelled over from America to visit us this season, and it will be a fantastic occasion to play against American opposition in front of more of these new fans," manager Phil Parkinson said in a statement referring to the July 22nd match.
Two other US fixtures had already been confirmed, with Wrexham set to take on Chelsea in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and Manchester United in San Diego, California, on July 19th and 25th, respectively.
