Having wrapped up promotion from the National League, Wexham’s title-winning team could be about to swap north Wales for Las Vegas.
The 3-1 triumph over Boreham Wood last weekend saw The Red Dragons clinch the National League trophy to seal automatic promotion to return to the Football League for the first time in 15 years.
And as a reward for all of their hard work, the squad could now be treated to a promotion party by co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney in Vegas.
As if the Wrexham players couldn’t love the Hollywood duo enough, the squad have also reportedly bagged themselves a cool £250,000 promotion bonus.
Plenty of money then, to spend in the the famous casinos on the Strip.
When asked about the club’s celebratory plans, Wrexham board advisor, Shaun Harvey, teased, ‘There is a trip to Las Vegas being mooted,’ to The Athletic.
But with season two of Welcome to Wrexham confirmed to be coming out on Disney Plus later this year, Paul Mullin and co. will need to be on their best behaviour in front of the cameras.

Before the players can get head of themselves and start dreaming of the Sin City, they must first come back down to Earth – or Devon to be precise – to take on Torquay United in their final National League outing on Saturday.
The celebrations will return next week, however, as the team will hit the streets of Wrexham on Tuesday in an open top bus parade around the city with the National League trophy.
Should the players indeed be jetting off for the promotion party, it will not be the first time the squad will be on American shores this year.
Wrexham are set to face Chelsea in a money spinning friendly in South Carolina on July 19, before taking on Manchester United in San Diego on July 26.
While the promotion heroes will rightly toast their success in the off-season, the stars will need to regroup and refocus ahead of their League 2 campaign when they return for the new season.

The squad may even boast Gareth Bale at that point, with McElhenney teasing the possible signing of the Welsh legend on social media.
The 46 year-old said on Twitter: ‘Hey @GarethBale11 let’s play golf, where I totally won’t spend 4 hours trying to convince you to un-retire for one last magical season.’
Bale, who retired from football earlier this year, responded to the It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia actor by saying: ‘Depends what course.’
Whilst the sight of Bale rocking up at The Racecourse Ground remains unlikely, don’t completely bet against him adding the League Two trophy to his five Champions League titles.
