Wrexham striker Paul Mullin became a free agent after leaving the STōK Cae Ras by mutual consent, with two clubs now listed as possible next destinations.
The end of Mullin’s time at Wrexham was confirmed by Wrexham AFC, closing one of the most important chapters of the club’s modern rise.
For Wrexham supporters, the next question is not only where Mullin goes, but how his exit is framed after a five-year spell that changed the club’s trajectory.
Paul Mullin has two familiar clubs linked after Wrexham exit
Wigan Athletic and Bradford City are among Mullin’s potential next clubs after his Wrexham departure.
Wigan were part of Mullin’s 2025/26 story after his loan spell there was cut short when he returned to Wrexham in January.
Bradford then became his next stop, giving both clubs recent context in any discussion around his next move.
Wrexham legacy remains clear as Paul Mullin moves on
Mullin’s final year was quieter than the seasons that made him a Wrexham icon, but the overall picture remains clear.
His record of 110 goals in 172 appearances is why his exit has been treated as more than a routine summer departure. We’ve already looked at Mullin’s incredible Wrexham career, and the numbers still explain the emotion around this moment.
“The Club would like to thank Paul for his enormous contribution during his time at the Racecourse Ground.”
That line from the club statement captured the correct tone. It was respectful, measured, and rooted in what Mullin gave Wrexham across three promotions.
There has also been wider reflection on Wrexham’s greatest players, which is where Mullin now firmly belongs.
Wrexham are now planning for Championship life without one of the defining figures of this era. For Mullin, Wigan and Bradford both offer familiarity if either route develops. For Wrexham, the focus has to remain on building the squad Phil Parkinson needs while recognising the scale of what Mullin helped the club achieve.
His next club will attract attention, and rightly so. But from a Wrexham perspective, this is also a natural part of the club’s evolution into the Championship.
