Wrexham\u2019s transfer window has burst into life in the last week, with reports that the Dragons are about to sign experienced Championship striker Josh Windass.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wrexham\u2019s<\/a> summer transfer window started slowly. Phil Parkinson<\/a> took his side to Australia and New Zealand with just two new players in the side in Danny Ward and Ryan Hardie, and both went on to feature in games against Melbourne Victory, Sydney FC and Wellington Phoenix.<\/p>\n

But after defeat against Sydney in particular, Wrexham fans said more new signings were needed<\/a> ahead of the upcoming Championship season. Parkinson insisted his side were in talks with new signings whilst down under, and in New Zealand, Wrexham announced the signing of Liberato Cacace<\/a>, and the club have recently followed that up with the signing of Bolton Wanderers captain George Thomason.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a signing that has fans excited, and it looks like he might not be the only one who moves to the Racecourse<\/a> this week. Josh Windass<\/a> has left Sheffield Wednesday, and reports state that Windass is set to undergo a medical with Wrexham<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Birmingham City won the League One title last season. They finished a staggering 19 points ahead of Wrexham in 2nd, but going into next season, both teams are on level footing and looking to take the Championship by storm.<\/p>\n

Both Birmingham City and Wrexham have money to spend. Already this summer, Birmingham City have spent \u00a310m on the signing of Kyogo Furuhashi<\/a>, whilst Wrexham have a \u00a325m transfer budget<\/a>. Already, the Dragons have smashed their club transfer record with the \u00a34m signing of Cacace, whilst names like Windass will surely add a sizeable chunk to the club\u2019s wage bill.<\/p>\n

But the Blues may not be so keen on Wrexham signing Windass. In fact, Birmingham City have been linked with Windass on and off for a few transfer windows now. Wrexham signing Windass is not only a great signing for the club and for Parkinson, but it will also come as a blow to Birmingham City, who will be Wrexham\u2019s rivals in the Championship next year, along with Welsh outfit Swansea City.<\/p>\n\nWrexham fixtures<\/strong><\/td>\nvs Birmingham City<\/strong><\/td>\nvs Swansea City<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nHome<\/td>\n4th October 2025<\/td>\n14th March 2026<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nAway<\/td>\n11th April 2026<\/td>\n20th December 2025<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

What next for Wrexham in the transfer market after Josh Windass?<\/p>\n

Despite the impending arrival of Windass, it looks like we could still see another big-name striker arrive at the Racecourse this summer. Recent reports have revealed how Wrexham have \u00a310m to spend on a new striker<\/a> this summer, but who that new striker might be remains to be seen.<\/p>\n

One striker who could arrive, albeit for free, is Michael Smith. Wrexham wanted to sign Smith in January, and now he\u2019s been released by Sheffield Wednesday along with Windass. He\u2019s seen his links to Wrexham reignited, although Wrexham now face competition from Championship rivals Preston who now want to sign Smith as well<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, former Cardiff City loan man Sivert Mannsverk continues to be linked with Wrexham. He spent the second half of last season on loan at Cardiff from Ajax, and Cardiff City fans spoke positively about Mannsverk<\/a>. His technical ability was clear to see despite the Bluebirds\u2019 struggles in the championship.<\/p>\n

So there seems to be a lot of irons in the fire for Wrexham right now. Next, expect the Windass signing to be announced, taking Wrexham\u2019s summer signings tally up to five, now with Ward, Hardie, Cacace, Thomason and Windass.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wrexham\u2019s transfer window has burst into life in the last week, with reports that the Dragons are about…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":282986,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7820],"tags":[855,12905,748,393,4884,53730,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-282985","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-birmingham","8":"tag-birmingham","9":"tag-birmingham-city","10":"tag-britain","11":"tag-england","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-josh-windass","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114897905260164655","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/282985","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=282985"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/282985\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/282986"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=282985"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=282985"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=282985"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
