Reynolds and McElhenney plan for Wrexham’s stadium to hold up to 55,000
Welsh club’s Racecourse Ground currently holds 12,600‘We could get between 45,000 and 55,000 people in there’
Wrexham’s owners, Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds, plan to develop the club’s Racecourse home into a stadium with up to 55,000 seats. The club will be playing in League One next season after back-to-back promotions and have attracted a worldwide fanbase thanks to the FX docuseries Welcome to Wrexham and the presence of their Hollywood A-listers.
But the ground holds only about 12,600 fans, with a temporary stand on the derelict Kop end behind one goal. “We have a plan in place right now that would work from stand to stand so eventually you get all four sides,” McElhenney said in an interview with the entertainment website Collider.
