Disney+ Launches 4th Season of Welcome to Wrexham as Club Value Nears £150m

Disney+ has just dropped the trailer for the highly anticipated fourth season of ‘Welcome to Wrexham’, showcasing the incredible journey of Wrexham AFC as they achieved three consecutive promotions—a historic feat in English football. It’s a story that could give Hollywood scripts a run for their money, especially with co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s strong ties to the entertainment industry.

This Emmy award-winning documentary series has been a hit with viewers, capturing the emotional rollercoaster of Wrexham’s rise from the National League to their recent promotion to the Championship. The upcoming season follows the team through the 2024-25 League One campaign, offering fans another glimpse into the club’s inspiring story. But don’t expect any comments from Wrexham’s rivals—they’re probably watching in awe too.

Aside from their on-field success, Wrexham’s financial makeover is equally impressive. Football finance expert Kieran Maguire predicts that the club could now be valued at a staggering £150 million, a massive jump from the £2 million that Reynolds and McElhenney shelled out to buy the team back in 2021. Bloomberg had valued the club at £100 million before their latest promotion, but Maguire sees even more growth on the horizon.

The show’s star power gets a boost in Season 4 with the appearance of seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady, who has ties to Birmingham City, the team that edged Wrexham into second place. With Brady now part of the Fox Sports crew in Hollywood, speculation is rife about a possible ‘Welcome to Birmingham’ series. The original ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ series has not only put the club on the map but has also turned it into a global brand, attracting fans from all corners of the world to this once-overlooked Welsh town.
