Ryan Reynolds splashes out £500k to send Wrexham to Vegas for third year in row

ACTOR Ryan Reynolds is splashing out £500,000 to send his Wrexham squad on a trip to Las Vegas to celebrate promotion — for the third year in a row.

He and fellow owner Rob McElhenney promised to reward the players and staff if they made it to the Championship.

Defender Max Cleworth said: “I can’t wait.

“That’s the main thing this week.

“I don’t think I’ll sleep until we go.”

It will be his first trip to Sin City in Nevada but the third for some of the club — with Ryan and Rob picking up the tab.

Wrexham was a non-league club when the two actors bought it in 2020.

Next season, the Welsh side will be in the second tier of English football.

Manager Phil Parkinson, who is not going, said: “They deserve it.

“I’ll be turning my phone off.

“I just want a message when they’re all back in the country in one piece.”
