Rob Mac keeps 70% to 75% Wrexham stake in control

Rob Mac and Ryan Reynolds still control Wrexham with an estimated combined stake of 70% to 75%. The club they bought in February 2021 for $2.5 million has kept moving up the ladder, and that ownership concentration is still the financial engine behind the climb.

Humphrey Ker said he helped nudge McElhenney toward football through “Just by pure osmosis, I got him interested in the game to the degree that he decides to buy a football team,” he said. Ker also described the leap from text messages to a deal that brought Reynolds in, a football brokerage team in New York, and the search for a club.

February 2021 deal

February 2021 set the structure that still governs Wrexham today. Rob Mac and Reynolds purchased the club from the Wrexham Supporters Trust for $2.5 million, then kept control concentrated enough that the pair now hold most of the equity rather than a broad spread of outside investors.

15 years in the National League followed before Wrexham climbed from the fifth tier of English soccer to the Championship by 2025. That rise did not dilute the owners’ influence; it sits alongside the same two-owner model, which is unusual for a club trying to finance continued expansion and still push upward.

Wrexham and the Kop Stand

$95 million is now going into the new Kop Stand, while a purpose-built training pavilion has already been completed at Colliers Park. Those projects show that the capital behind Wrexham is still being directed into infrastructure, not just squad-building.

Wrexham recorded the highest league finish in the club’s 162-year history during 2025–26, yet the club is still not in the Premier League even though it is described as never having been closer to reaching it. The ambition remains obvious: the ownership is not treating the climb as finished, and the next test is whether the stadium work and training base can support the push from the Championship to The Premier League.

How much of Wrexham each owner specifically controls is not explained, but the split does not need to be exact to read the signal: Rob Mac and Reynolds are still running the club with the kind of majority stake that lets them keep spending, keep building and keep the timeline aimed at the top tier.
