Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are very publicly recruiting Gareth Bale to join Wrexham
Look, if you’re Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds, you’re over the moon right now with Wrexham AFC getting promoted to the Football League
The co-owners of the soccer team are rightfully celebrating the achievement for their squad, and now they’re even leaning into recruiting, and why not?
They got some awesome congrats from retired Welsh soccer star Gareth Bale and decided it was time to get him on board to join their squad. Just check out the whole Twitter exchange below and enjoy. Bale didn’t exactly say no, for what it’s worth! Even if it didn’t work, this is so fun to see:
Hey @GarethBale11 let’s play golf, where I totally won’t spend 4 hours trying to convince you to un-retire for one last magical season pic.twitter.com/FZgXZbM4zx

I will shave a professional-grade golf course into Rob’s back if you’ll give Wrexham a season.

Update: after an online image search, it appears Rob does not have the requisite body hair to support this plan.
