Wrexham tie down key man Andy Cannon to new contract as midfielder hails 'really exciting times' under Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney

League One

Stockport County

Wrexham

Cannon has signed a new two-year contract until the summer of 2026, with the option of a further year unitl 2027. The player has cited excitement about what is still to come as the major factor in pledging himself to the rapidly rising north Wales club.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Cannon dropped down three divisions from the Championship to sign with Wrexham in the National League midway through the 2022-23 campaign. He has enjoyed promotions in both seasons and made 41 appearances across all competitions in 2023-24.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Cannon said: "I'm absolutely delighted, it's been a great 18 months for me since I've been here so I'm over the moon to get it done. Jimmy [James McClean] was begging me to stay, so I had to! It's a really exciting time, we've had two promotions, and I always go back to it - there is a great set of lads in there. To work with them day-in and day-out and the staff as well, it is a joy so I'm really looking forward to what's ahead.&nbsp;I just want to get started again; I'm hoping for another really good season again - hopefully we'll be successful."

WHAT ANDY CANNON SAID

On Saturday, Wrexham will commence their first season at League One level since 2005 when Wycombe Wanderers, who were in the Championship as recently as 2020-21 and haven't played below the third tier since 2018, visit SToK Cae Ras. But this will be the toughest test climbing the ladder yet as co-owner Ryan Reynold and Rob McElhenney ultimately target the Premier League.
