Wrexham Fans Convinced Club Will Sign Mysterious Midfielder as Second Deadline-Day Acquisition
Wrexham supporters are in a frenzy, and rightly so, as the Dragons gear up to complete a second deadline-day signing in what’s been an impressive transfer window. Owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s financial backing has catapulted Wrexham back to prominence, and fans are itching for more.
The Red Dragons have made a solid start to life in League One, with owners aiming for a promotion to the Championship. Wrexham’s spending this summer has been notable, breaking their transfer record not once but twice. July saw the arrival of Ollie Rathbone from Rotherham for around £420,000, while a deal worth £500,000 secured Mo Faal’s signature from West Brom on deadline day.
But what about another new face at the Welsh club? The rumour mill has gone into overdrive as Wrexham fans have spotted a "mystery" player in photos from the Dragons’ training sessions. Enter Josh Adam, a 20-year-old Scottish midfielder previously at Manchester City.
Free agent Adam joined the Citizens from Celtic in 2020, playing for the under-18s before making his way to the under-21s. The midfielder accumulated 16 Premier League 2 appearances, netting two goals and providing one assist in the 2022-2023 campaign. While his potential addition won’t set the transfer record alight, Adam could provide an additional string to Wrexham’s attacking bow.
With the transfer window set to slam shut at 11pm BST on Friday evening, fans are growing impatient for the official confirmation. Should Josh Adam indeed don the Wrexham shirt, the deal could come as a major boost for a squad looking to challenge at the upper end of the League One table.
