CAMERON GREEN does not want to be a "passenger" in the Wrexham side and he wants to continue to make the most of his unexpected opportunity at The Racecourse.

The left-back was in the football wilderness having left Watford in the summer of 2020 and hadn't played this season before the 22-year-old, training with Queen's Park Rangers' second string, when he was recommended to Reds’ boss Dean Keates.

Green joined on non-contract terms last month following a successful trial and he has impressed since replacing the injured Jamie Reckord, helping Wrexham remain on course for a play-off spot.

Not content just to be playing games, Green wants to make a difference when he takes to the pitch.

"I am happy with how it has gone," said Green, who has made five starts. "I want to be the best player on the pitch every time I play.

"I'm not just trying to be a passenger, I want to be a big part in the team and that is what I am looking to do.

"The more I play, the better I will be.

"All I can do is play the way I play and if I can impress people, that is brilliant."

Green produced an excellent all-round performance on Saturday as he helped Wrexham win 5-3 against King's Lynn Town, with the defender having an assist for the fourth goal scored by Jordan Ponticelli.

"It was an okay cross," said Green.

"I am an attacking full-back so I like to try and influence the game with goals and assists.

"I hadn't got any so it was nice to get an assist and hopefully there are more to come."

Green took instructions from Ponticelli on board.

"JP is in the house with me and we spoke about how he played," said Green.

"We have not played too much together and he said to get the ball and look to put crosses in.

"It was just a case of getting it out of my feet, deliver and it was a great header from JP."

Wrexham weren't at their best against the lowly Linnets but Green, who had a loan spell with Braintree Town before the 2019-20 National League South campaign was suspended last March because of the coronavirus pandemic, was not concerned.

"It was just about getting the win," said Green.

"When it gets to this time of the season, you are not too bothered about the way you play; if you can play well, brilliant, but the three points is most important."

Wrexham's play-off destiny remains in their own hands heading into the final game of the regular season against Dagenham on Saturday.

Four teams are within two points of the sixth placed Reds but Green is not concerned about events elsewhere.

"We have got to to to Dagenham and get the three points," said Green.

"We can't worry about anybody else.

"It is in our hands so if we go and win the game - the biggest game of the season - we are in the play-offs."
