The 29-year-old frontman was a marquee addition for the Red Dragons back in 2021 – a matter of months after McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds completed their stunning takeover. Mullin is closing in on 100 goals for the Welsh outfit and was a talismanic presence as they secured promotion back into the Football League last season.

Mullin has become a star of the ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ documentary series, helping to raise his profile in America and beyond, with the promise of much more to come from him. His latest outing saw another match ball collected after netting a hat-trick against Accrington Stanley.
WHAT MCELHENNEY SAID ABOUT MULLIN
McElhenney was at that game and has been quick to sing the praises of Mullin as he continues to make an impressive contribution on and off the field. The Wrexham co-chairman told : “When you put in the work like Paul does, good things happen. The man you see in the documentary is the man who he is. He’s inspired millions of people all over the world, for so many different reasons, and I’m so proud that’s he’s part of this organisation. Not just because he scores hat-tricks every once in a while. The more games that this man plays for this club, the bigger this club is going to continue to get.”
Getty/GOALWHAT NEXT FOR MULLIN?
Wrexham remain in the hunt for automatic promotion out of League Two this season, with Mullin helping to fire them back into the top three of that division. Phil Parkinson’s side have 11 games remaining in which to try and steer clear of the fourth-tier play-off lottery.
