Wrexham could be in the market for more attacking signings this summer with one January target potentially available.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wrexham<\/a> have sealed a third straight promotion and will be playing Championship football next season.<\/p>\n

That felt like an absolute dream for Wrexham fans, but recent reports only add to that feeling.<\/p>\n

Claims from last week suggested Wrexham are ready to splash the cash<\/a> in the transfer market.<\/p>\n

Rob McElhenney sees more Wrexham<\/a> success coming, with this project not stopping at just three promotions.<\/p>\n

Wrexham could challenge the likes of Leicester City and Southampton for signings, with Phil Parkinson potentially looking at more attacking options.<\/p>\n

Wrexham signed Sam Smith in January<\/a>, paying a club-record fee to sign him from Reading.<\/p>\n

We would not be surprised to see that record broken again this summer, and reports suggest Wrexham want Cardiff City\u2019s Callum Robinson<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ryan Hardie is back on Wrexham\u2019s radar<\/a> after January interest, with Parkinson potentially looking back at recent targets.<\/p>\n

One man who would fit that bill is Leeds United\u2019s Joe Gelhardt<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Wrexham looked at Gelhardt in the January window, but he ended up signing for Hull City on loan.<\/p>\n

Gelhardt hit five goals in 20 games for Hull, helping the Tigers narrowly avoid relegation from the Championship.<\/p>\n

TEAMtalk<\/a> now claim Leeds will \u2018listen to offers\u2019 for Gelhardt, as well as returning playmaker Sam Greenwood after his loan spell at Preston North End.<\/p>\n

Gelhardt will have two years left on his Leeds contract this summer, and this may be the right time for him to go.<\/p>\n

Leeds have just won promotion to the Premier League, and if Gelhardt wasn\u2019t receiving playing time before, he almost certainly won\u2019t know.<\/p>\n

Gelhardt will surely leave Leeds permanently this summer, and Wrexham would be wise to take another look at him for a potential summer move.<\/p>\n

Wrexham youth coach aided Joe Gelhardt rise<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gelhardt showed so much potential at Wigan Athletic and then dazzled in his early Premier League days with Leeds.<\/p>\n

The last few seasons have been difficult for Gelhardt and the time has surely come for a permanent exit.<\/p>\n

Wrexham may well target Gelhardt once again as Parkinson weighs up attacking additions, with Paul Mullin and Ollie Palmer surely on the way out.<\/p>\n

Gelhardt will appeal, and if Parkinson wants another opinion on the Leeds man, he could turn to Nick Chadwick.<\/p>\n

Wrexham youth coach Chadwick played a role in Gelhardt\u2019s development at Wigan, serving as an Under-18 coach with the Latics for four years.<\/p>\n

Gelhardt rose from talented youngster to first-team player before heading off to Leeds in a \u00a31million deal, as noted by Wigan Today<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Chadwick knows so much about Gelhardt\u2019s talent, and he would surely give a real thumbs up to any potential Wrexham move this summer.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wrexham could be in the market for more attacking signings this summer with one January target potentially available.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":81034,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4100],"tags":[94,38670,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-81033","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-joe-gelhardt","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-uk","12":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114464882908197664","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81033","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=81033"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81033\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/81034"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=81033"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=81033"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=81033"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
