First words as Wrexham player
In his first interview as a Wrexham player, the former England youth international spoke of his new club’s ambition.
He told the club’s website: “Everyone knows about Wrexham. hey’re pushing, and that for me is perfect - a team that is pushing for success who will keep going until it aligns. I’m really excited.
“I was out in LA on holiday, and you could see things about Wrexham out there - the club is really big and well-known. I just wanted to come here - I’m excited to start.
“I’ve played lots of games in this league in some big games, and I hope that I can bring that into the changing room and together we can keep pushing forward.
“I came here last year, and you could feel the energy from the fans straight away. Once Wrexham scored last year, it was mental. I’m excited to be on the right side of that this time.”
“My goals are for us to keep pushing as a club, as a player and to see how far we can get. I want to help the club, and for the club to help me, too - hopefully we can achieve what everyone wants.
“The fans are passionate, and I’m just as passionate - hopefully it will be a great match. I can’t wait to see you all at the Racecourse and get going.”
