Ryan Reynolds buys second soccer team amid Justin Baldoni legal battle
Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are heading to Colombia
www.independent.co.ukHere’s the latest I can confirm based on available reporting:
-
Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s Wrexham AFC have had notable promotion success in the past, most recently earning promotion to League Two in 2023 and continuing to gain attention around their ownership and the Welcome to Wrexham documentary. This remains a high-profile case in football ownership and media coverage, though it dates from earlier seasons rather than the very latest month.[1]
-
In 2025 there were reports about Reynolds and McElhenney being involved with another club, La Equidad in Colombia, as part of a celebrity-investor consortium, signaling ongoing expansion of their soccer-ownership interests beyond Wrexham. This suggests activity around new acquisitions rather than updates about Wrexham itself.[2][5]
-
Recent mainstream coverage continues to monitor Wrexham’s financials, fan interest, and potential for further promotions or revenue opportunities tied to the club’s rising profile, though concrete new competition-level milestones beyond League Two promotions would need a fresh check.[3]
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest updates from major outlets or search for any new official statements from Wrexham AFC or Reynolds/McElhenney on their current soccer ventures. I can also summarize any specific outlet (e.g., BBC, The Guardian, or a club statement) you prefer.
