LOCKED IN: Jay Rodriguez Commits to Wrexham AFC Until 2028
Wrexham AFC have officially confirmed that striker Jay Rodriguez has committed his long-term future to the club, formally accepting his four-year contract extension that will see him remain at the Racecourse Ground until the end of the 2027–28 season.
The veteran forward, who initially joined Wrexham in the summer of 2023, has become an influential figure both on and off the pitch. His leadership, experience, and knack for scoring crucial goals have made him a fan favorite and a key part of manager Phil Parkinson’s plans as the club continues its ambitious push through the English football league system.
Rodriguez’s renewed commitment signals a significant vote of confidence in Wrexham’s project, one that has attracted global attention since the club’s high-profile takeover by Hollywood duo Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. With promotion to League One firmly in their sights, Wrexham see Rodriguez as a cornerstone of their strategy for sustained success.
“I’m thrilled to be staying at Wrexham,” Rodriguez said in a statement released by the club. “This is a special club with a passionate fan base, a clear vision, and a bright future. I’ve loved every minute of my time here so far, and I’m excited for what we can achieve together in the coming years.”
The 34-year-old’s renewed deal includes performance incentives and a potential future role in the club’s coaching structure, further underlining his value beyond just his contributions on the field.
Wrexham officials echoed Rodriguez’s enthusiasm, praising his professionalism, dedication, and impact. “Jay has been immense for us,” said manager Phil Parkinson. “To have him locked in for the next four years gives us stability and experience as we continue to build.”
As Wrexham chase further success, keeping Rodriguez onboard is a major statement of intent — a sign that the Red Dragons are not just aiming for promotion but building a sustainable path to higher-tier football.
