Wrexham close in on £8m Man City defender - just days after smashing their transfer record for former Premier League striker

Wrexham are showing no signs of slowing down in the transfer market after smashing their transfer record for a former Premier League striker just days ago.

Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have bolstered Phil Parkinson's squad with several new stars this summer, after Wrexham became the first team in the history of English football's top five divisions to earn three successive promotions last season.

The Welsh club, whose first matches in the Championship came with defeats against Southampton and West Brom, are closing in on Manchester City defender Callum Doyle for a fee worth in the region of £8million.
