The latest man on their radar is <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/sheffield-united\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Sheffield United<\/a> talisman Callum O\u2019Hare, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thestar.co.uk\/sport\/football\/sheffield-united\/callum-ohare-sheffield-united-wrexham-transfer-interest-8950459\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">The Star<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His importance to United has only grown since Gus Hamer\u2019s move to <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/coventry-city\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Coventry City<\/a>, while the arrival of Ben Brereton Diaz has allowed O\u2019Hare to move back into his preferred central role after filling in on the wing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, any approach from <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/wrexham\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Wrexham<\/a> would provide another major test of the ambition of SUFC owners Steven Rosen and Helmy Eltoukhy, particularly at this late stage of the transfer window.<\/p>\n<p>Why would <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/wrexham\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Wrexham<\/a> want Callum O\u2019Hare?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/wrexham\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Wrexham<\/a> could see <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/sheffield-united\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Sheffield United<\/a> midfielder Callum O\u2019Hare as an ideal addition as they continue to strengthen their promotion push under Phil Parkinson.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The attacking midfielder offers creativity, goal threat and valuable Championship experience, while his high-energy style would also suit Parkinson\u2019s demands. O\u2019Hare is comfortable operating as a No. 10, receiving between the lines, linking play and creating opportunities, but can also drift into wider areas when required.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He has already made an impact for <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/sheffield-united\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Sheffield United<\/a> this season, scoring in their 2-2 draw at <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/cardiff-city\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Cardiff City<\/a>, and has looked increasingly influential after returning to a more natural role. His ability to contribute at both ends of the pitch makes him a valuable asset to Chris Wilder\u2019s side.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">O\u2019Hare remains contracted until 2028 and is regarded as an important part of United\u2019s promotion ambitions. However, <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/wrexham\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Wrexham<\/a>\u2019s growing ambition could make him an appealing target, particularly given their desire for quality attacking reinforcements.<\/p>\n<p>The Verdict: <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/wrexham\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Wrexham<\/a> are a quality attacking midfielder away from a perfect summer window<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/wrexham\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Wrexham<\/a> AFC have invested heavily in recent transfer windows, building a squad capable of competing at the top end of the Championship. After falling short of promotion for the first time in three years, though, the Red Dragons do not need to make wholesale changes this summer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, their recruitment has focused on strengthening specific areas of the squad, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrexhamafc.co.uk\/news\/2026\/august\/11\/anthony-patterson-signs-for-wrexham-from-sunderland\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Anthony Patterson<\/a> improving the goalkeeping options, <a href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/2026\/07\/27\/wrexham-win-race-sign-danny-imray\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Danny Imray<\/a> adding competition at right-back and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/football\/articles\/czxqkkyxe9vo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ben Whiteman<\/a> bringing leadership and valuable Championship experience to midfield.<\/p>\n<p>Danny Imray\u2019s <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/wrexham\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Wrexham<\/a> stats<\/p>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Games<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Goals<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Assists<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Average Rating<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">3<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">7.01<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Phil Parkinson is also well stocked in attacking midfield and the inside-forward positions, with several players capable of operating behind the main striker. That depth means <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/wrexham\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Wrexham<\/a> can focus on targeted additions rather than another major rebuild.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An attacking midfielder is clearly what they want before the window closes.
