Wrexham in the Premier League?! Ryan Reynolds & Co backed to earn spot in top flight alongside Tom Brady's Birmingham if Red Dragons can gain promotion from League One

Wrexham have been living the Hollywood dream since their takeover by superstars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney in 2020, they have managed to go from the National League to being in the promotional spots for the Championship this season.

Birmingham City, who have already won the League One title and have confirmed promotion to the Championship, had seen a minority takeover by NFL legend Tom Brady in the summer of 2023. Former Southampton striker Long has now claimed that Wrexham and Birmingham City could make their way to the Premier League soon, but warned them of the pitfalls of the Championship.

Long told BoyleSports who offer the latest Irish Premier Division Odds & Betting: "Birmingham and Wrexham could get back-to-back promotions next season, but once you get into the Championship, it’s so hard to call every season, everyone beats everyone.

"It’s impossible to call at times, you have two or sometimes three games a week and nine points can shoot you up the league and missing out can be the opposite.

"Wrexham are big in America and trying to grow the game over there, Birmingham are the bigger club here, but it’s getting closer, the Hollywood angle would make it huge for Wrexham to be in the Premier League."

The Red Dragons are currently second in the League One standings and stand to gain automatic promotion, however, they will have to see off late-season pressure from Wycombe Wanderers to avoid the promotion playoffs.
