RUMOUR surrounds the identity of mystery investors who are proposing to buy Wrexham Football Club.

Wrexham Supporters Trust Board (WST) held a special general meeting on Tuesday evening to decide whether talks with "two extremely well-known individuals of high net worth" should go ahead.

In a vote, the result of which was announced this morning, members decided that the negotiations should proceed.

Online forums have since been abuzz with excitement and speculation about who the prospective new owners may be - with film star Ryan Reynolds and businessman Jay Sugarman among the names suggested.

Speculation includes that the names will soon be made public - which may well be the case.

In a statement prior to the special meeting, a spokesman said: "The investors wish for their identities to remain anonymous until WST members have authorised the board to proceed with discussions."

Following the vote, a WST spokesman said: "The investors will be permitted to present their vision for Wrexham AFC Limited to the members in writing or by audio visual means.

“The WST Board will now proceed with talks, and will update members on the next steps as soon as possible.”

Who do you think the investors could be?
