New Wrexham FC investor? Hugh Jackman dons merch for the celebrity-owned football club

Hugh Jackman has shown his support for Wrexham FC as he joined his close friends Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds for a stroll in New York City on Thursday.

The actor donned a hat bearing the Welsh football club’s logo, fuelling rumours that he could buy into the league, which is owned by his pal Reynolds and fellow actor Rob McElhenney.

That bid saw overwhelming support from the previous owners, the Wrexham Supporters Trust – where over 98 percent of the voters were in favor of the sale.

It was completed in February of 2021 – with the entire process being documented in the FX television documentary ‘Welcome to Wrexham’.

McElhenney, a star and producer of the sitcom ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’, took on an executive producer role alongside Reynolds in the documentary.

Jackman, meanwhile, rang in his 55th birthday during a relaxing stroll with Reynolds and his wife Lively this week.
