Wrexham to submit revised Kop stand plans

Wrexham chief executive Michael Williamson has described the submission of the revised designs as a “major milestone”.

“We want to create a stadium which is authentic, organic and in keeping with Wrexham. The design will therefore emphasise materials that reflect the strong heritage and character of Wrexham,” he said.

Work on the new stand was originally due to begin in 2023 but was delayed because of what the club called “additional complications”.

Wrexham, owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, appointed architects Populous to “create a masterplan” for their stadium.

The original standing Kop terrace was abandoned in 2007 and was unused until its demolition in January 2023.
