The hit documentary Welcome to Wrexham is set to return for a much-anticipated second season.

The show takes football fans behind the scenes of Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds' efforts to take Wrexham back to the Football League having been out the top four leagues since 2008.

There was concern about how McElhenney and Reynolds would be welcomed into English football given the idea of two American actors buying a club could be seen as a vanity project. However, their stewardship has attracted positive headlines for their attitude and running of the club so far.

With Wrexham now in League Two, the second season of the show will chart their successful 2022/23 campaign.
