WREXHAM AFC stars took to the red carpet alongside Rob McElhenney as the Reds' latest US Tour was launched.

The north Wales club has become well-known worldwide since Rob and fellow actor and friend Ryan Reynolds took over as co-chairmen in February 2021.

That, alongside two promotions and a documentary (Welcome to Wrexham), has fired the club to unprecedented levels of popularity.

So much so, that the Reds' flew out on a US Tour last summer - taking on the likes of Manchester United and Chelsea stateside.

The men's team is now back in America once more as they get set to take on Bournemouth, Chelsea and Ryan's hometown club; Vancouver Whitecaps.

Ahead of that though, members of both the men and women's teams enjoyed spending time with It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia star Rob on the red carpet yesterday (July 18) at the Beverley Hilton in Beverley Hills, California.

The red carpet cocktail event, hosted by STok Cold Brew Coffee, was held in celebration of the club's upcoming '2024 Wrex Coast Tour', which will see the men's team return to the US and, for the first time, sees the Wrexham AFC Women travel Stateside too.
