"At the forefront of my mind when making this decision, was not only what was best for me but also the club, and making the decision now gives the club every opportunity to assess their options before the window closes. "Wrexham will always have a special place in my heart." Hollywood superstar and Wrexham co-owner Reynolds has since shared his love for the goalkeeper in a heartfelt social media post. The 46-year-old tweeted: "He built memories I'll never let go of for as long as I live. I love this guy. Thank you for everything, Ben."
