The Wrexham co-chairmen, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, have told S4C they accept Gareth Bale is unlikely to come out of retirement
“Hey @GarethBale11 let’s play golf, where I totally won’t spend four hours trying to convince you to un-retire for one last magical season,” McElhenny wrote. Bale turned down the offer, saying he is “quite happy where I am. Spending a lot of time with my kids and my wife. Time that I’ve lost over the years, being committed to football.”
“I think I was looking more for a free round of golf off Rob,” Bale joked when asked about the offer by the presenter Laura WoodsIn an interview for S4C broadcast on Tuesday, the Welsh journalist Maxine Hughes asked if there was “seriousness” to McElhenney and Reynolds’ offer on Twitter and if they are “actually trying to convince“I think there’s seriousness from our side, but I don’t know that there’s seriousness from his.
“He’s given up so much for a sport that he loves,” Reynolds continues. “It’s fun, though. I like that we can kind of do some stuff that’s a little outside the box of convention when it comes to goofing around.”“I didn’t think Ben Foster would be coming over and he did,” the 46-year-old actor added. Wrexham persuaded the former England goalkeeper Foster to come out of retirement in March, and he memorably saved a last-minute penalty against title rivals Notts County as the Dragons won promotion.
Wrexham’s revival under their Hollywood owners has captured global attention, and Reynolds was keen to reflect on the personal impact of his investment in the former non-league side, which he bought alongside McElhenney in November 2020.
