Wrexham have appointed four new directors to its board following approval by the English Football League (EFL).

Caroline Hutchinson, Thayer Joyce, George Dewey and Ricky Engelberg have all joined the League One club's board - taking the total number of Wrexham AFC Limited directors to nine.

The club states the newly-appointed directors will "further strengthen the board providing an enhanced governance structure to support the CEO and senior leadership team".

Commenting on the appointments, co-chairmen Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds said: "Our four new directors are not new faces to people at Wrexham AFC or the town.

"They've already been working tirelessly to improve our fortunes on and off the pitch and we welcome them as official board directors while shamelessly asking them to continue right on doing what they're doing."

Kaleen Allyn - who became executive director in January - also sits on the board, along with Humphrey Ker and Shaun Harvey.

Dewey and Engelberg have both worked with Reynolds during their careers.

Dewey is executive producer of the Welcome to Wrexham documentary and is a co-founder - alongside Reynolds - of movie, TV series, content and advertising creators Maximum Effort.

He started his career as a writer with advertising agency McCann and was the marketer for Deadpool, which starred Reynolds, and Aviation Gin.

Dewey was also producer of movies including Free Guy, The Adam Project and Spirited.

Engelberg was chief marketing officer at VistaPrint, who have been a shirt sponsor of Wrexham's under the ownership of Reynolds and McElhenney.

He also held numerous roles with global sports brand Nike and is a partner in Reynolds' Maximum Effort firm.

Hutchinson has operated as a ventures principal for McElhenney's More Better Industries.

Joyce has served as chief operating officer for the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia actor's company.

A Wrexham statement read: "Caroline, Thayer, George and Ricky all come with a huge amount of experience from different areas of the US sports and entertainment industry and are well versed in the growth of the club and the Wrexham brand outside the UK through their roles at More Better and Maximum Effort."

Wrexham sit second in League One, three points above Wycombe Wanderers who are third, although the Chairboys have a game in hand.
