Overview

  • Wrexham sealed promotion to the Championship with a 3-0 victory over Charlton Athletic, marking their third successive promotion since 2021.
  • The promotion triggered over £2.3 million in player and staff bonuses, partially offset by an £850,000 insurance policy taken out before the season.
  • The club anticipates an £8 million increase in TV revenue next season, further solidifying its financial position despite a £2.7 million loss in 2023-24.
  • Wrexham’s rise has been bolstered by the Emmy-winning docuseries 'Welcome to Wrexham' and high-profile sponsorships, with over 50% of revenue now generated internationally.
  • Manager Phil Parkinson has overseen the club’s ascent from the National League to the Championship, supported by the strategic investments of its Hollywood co-owners.
