Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney making big moves! Wrexham complete shock signing of ex-Man Utd & Leicester midfielder

<p>The League One promotion chasers have confirmed the capture of former Manchester United academy product James on a deal until January and ex-Wolves forward Bodvarsson, 32, has also penned a short-term deal for the same period. The former, now 33, won promotion with Leicester to the Premier League in 2014 and he was with the Foxes when they won the English top-flight two years later.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The former Bristol City ace told <a href="https://www.wrexhamafc.co.uk/news/2024/october/25/signed---matty-james-signs-short-term-contract-at-wrexham-afc/" target="_blank">Wrexham's website</a>: “It feels great to be given the opportunity to play again and to join a Club that’s moving in a direction that everybody’s watching. I’m over the moon, and can’t wait to get started. It was a weird process for me, not being in a routine. I was training at Leicester, which I’m thankful for, but to be back inside a men’s environment here with the lads – they’re a fantastic bunch of lads and I’ve loved every minute so far. I want to enjoy playing football again, to try to help – be around the group, and whatever the gaffer wants me to do, I’ll do. I want to build up in terms of fitness and game time – and there’s a lot of games coming up, so I want to earn some minutes and move forward from there.”</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Welcome to Wrexham, Matty James and Jón Daði Böðvarsson 🤝<br><br>Both players have signed short-term contracts until January.

With injuries to George Evans, Jack Marriott and Steven Fletcher, it was important to bring them in, and we look forward to working with the two of them.”</p><p>The Red Dragons sit second in League One and are aiming for a third-straight promotion in as many years.</p>
