Mullin Departs Wrexham: Hollywood Era Ends
26 Jun
Summary
- Paul Mullin scored 110 goals in 172 appearances for Wrexham.
- He was instrumental in three consecutive promotions for the club.
- Mullin's departure follows back surgery in summer 2024.
Wrexham has confirmed the departure of star striker Paul Mullin, following an agreement to pay up the final year of his contract. Mullin leaves as a free agent after an illustrious tenure, scoring 110 goals in 172 appearances and playing a crucial role in three consecutive promotions for the club.
His remarkable scoring record, including 38 league goals in the 2023 promotion-winning season, cemented his hero status at The Racecourse Ground. Mullin's impact extended beyond the pitch, as highlighted in the "Welcome to Wrexham" documentary, where he shared personal insights and raised awareness for autism.
Mullin joined Wrexham in 2020 despite interest from Championship clubs, a decision that proved mutually beneficial. While his initial campaign back in the EFL was affected by a severe pre-season injury, he remained a key player, earning his third consecutive club player of the year award.
However, after undergoing back surgery in the summer of 2024, Mullin struggled to replicate his previous form. His final season saw him score only three goals from nine starts, leading manager Phil Parkinson to seek alternative striking options. Mullin spent last season out on loan with Wigan Athletic and Bradford City before his eventual departure from Wrexham.
