Ryan Reynolds’ Wrexham secures its latest Hollywood linkup

WREXHAM, Wales (AP) — Wrexham’s shirts will have a taste of Hollywood next season. The Welsh soccer team has secured its latest celebrity linkup and co-owner Ryan Reynolds is keeping it in the family. Actor Blake Lively is married to the “Deadpool” star and will sponsor the team’s training kit from next season through her non-alcoholic beverage company Betty Buzz. Wrexham has gained a global following since it was bought by Reynolds and fellow actor Rob McElhenney in 2021. A documentary series about the team has streamed around the world and has made household names of its players, management and fans.
