Dream Wrexham summer transfer window as 12-goal ace signs to be Paul Mullin heir and weak area improved

The 2025 summer transfer window will officially open for Wrexham on June 1.

Wrexham are now gearing up for their first-ever season in the Championship and their first in the second tier since the 1980s.

Phil Parkinson has said talks over potential transfer targets have already taken place, and a busy summer is expected.

Wrexham will quadruple their wage bill following their third promotion in as many years, and increased revenue means £40m could be available to spend in the market.

With this in mind, we have taken a look at what a dream summer transfer window would look like for the Dragons.

Wrexham sign Callum Robinson

One area expected to be a priority for the club over the coming months is the striker department.

Paul Mullin has been linked with an exit, and with Steven Fletcher already leaving at the end of his contract, more firepower is needed.

On this front, Wrexham want to sign Callum Robinson, who is currently on the books of Cardiff City.

Cardiff were relegated to League One this past season, but the striker still managed to net 12 league goals in the second tier – more than any of the Dragons’ strikers, barring Sam Smith when counting his Reading goals.

Premier League experience arrives at the Racecourse

Wrexham have made a habit of signing players in higher divisions during the Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds era.

This summer looks to be no exception either, with West Ham United’s Aaron Cresswell wanted by Wrexham.

The defender is out of contract on June 30 and would bring a plethora of quality, experience, and versatility to the club’s backline.

Sticking with the top flight, Wrexham are exploring the Premier League loan market, and signing some rising talent from one of the top clubs would go a long way to keeping the club in the Championship and maybe even making a play-off push.

Wrexham sign more attacking midfield quality

One area Wrexham have been lacking in for some time is midfield, specifically when it comes to competition for Elliot Lee.

Lee is fantastic, but there are no players who can really cover for the former Luton Town man if needed.

However, Wrexham want to sign Tom Lawrence and Charlie Savage, which should hopefully solve that issue.

Wrexham players sold

It’s never nice to say goodbye to previously key stars, but Parkinson has already said players will leave Wrexham this summer.

The club can only register 25 players in the Championship and currently have 27 aged 21 or above, meaning at least two would miss out without a single signing.

The most likely options to go are probably Will Boyle, Luke Bolton, George Evans, Jacob Mendy, and one, or perhaps both, of Ollie Palmer and Mullin.

The window does not shut permanently until September 1, and a lot could change in that time, but this would be a productive summer for Wrexham.
