Paul Mullin has joined a host of Wrexham players in reacting to a post from the club on social media.

Wrexham loaned out Paul Mullin this summer after the striker lost his place in the squad last season.

Mullin is excelling at Wigan Athletic and has already scored three League One goals in the 2025/26 campaign.

Since his exit, the 30-year-old has not spoken about the Red Dragons an awful lot.

However, the centre-forward, who has 110 goals for Wrexham, has now commented on an official post from the club this week.

Paul Mullin comments on Wrexham’s Ollie Rathbone post

Ollie Rathbone has been out of action in 2025/26 after picking up an injury in pre-season.

Parkinson gave a Rathbone injury update this week, saying he has been back in training.

He stated: “Ollie Rathbone trained great today.

“I went to watch him train this morning, David Jones took a really good session with Ben Sheaf, Dom [Hyam], Ollie and Josh Windass, so it’s great to have him available as well, and what an asset he’s going to be when he’s ready.”

On Thursday, meanwhile, Wrexham sent a message to Rathbone on their official Instagram, writing: “Great to see you out there, Ollie”.

The likes of Steven Fletcher and Sam Smith reacted. Now, Mullin has also taken to the comment section of the post to send a message, simply posting one clapping hands emoji.

Will Paul Mullin play for Wrexham again

Details of Mullin’s Wigan loan were reported on over the summer.

It was said at the time that Wrexham have the option to recall the striker from the DW Stadium in January if they wish.

If not, Mullin will return to the Racecourse Ground once the 2025/26 season has come to a close.

He will have a year left on his Wrexham contract at that point, and a decision will need to be made on what’s next for the attacker.

Mullin wanted to play in the Championship with the Dragons, revealing in Season 4 of Welcome to Wrexham: “Just to play one game in the Championship at Wrexham would be worth absolutely everything, be the icing on the cake for this story, who knows where it could end.

“I’ve enjoyed absolutely every minute here.”
