Broadhead ‘delighted’ by first Wrexham goal

Nathan Broadhead, a club record signing, was “delighted” to break the club’s mark and look forward to playing in the Championship.

In Tuesday’s 2-0 EFL Cup third-round victory over Reading, Broadhead added his second goal for Wrexham since signing from Ipswich Town in August.

The 27-year-old forward struggled with a calf injury in the first few weeks of the season, but he is now looking to improve.

“I’m just thrilled to score and advance to the next round,” said Broadhead.

“I just can’t wait to get my sharpness back and play in the championship,” he said.

I’m adjusting to new players and different systems playing.

“It gave me a little time to unwind, move all of my belongings, and everything in between,” I said.

Before beginning his professional career with Everton, the boy-born Broadhead was a boy at Wrexham’s academy.

He made an endearing commitment to Ipswich in 2023 and spent the last season playing for the Premier League with Wrexham.

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, the Hollywood partners behind Wrexham, have spoken of their goals to advance to the top of English football.

“I came here for that reason, and I hope we can accomplish that,” Broadhead continued.

The owners’ intention is to achieve that. I can see the vision, so I’m hoping to be there.

You notice the players entering,” You’re bringing in top-notch players from the Championship, which only serves to reinforce your intentions.

That’s the project, exactly what we’re working on.

Along with Wales team-mates Danny Ward and Kieffer Moore, Broadhead was one of the 13 players who signed for Wrexham over the summer.

With three games left, Wales currently leads Group J, and Broadhead is enjoying his role under the guidance of manager Craig Bellamy.

He’s a good manager, and I’m enjoying working with him, according to Broadhead.

I’m typically ranked 10 in his system, which is a little different from ours, but I’m adaptable.

For the first time in the competition, three Welsh clubs have advanced to the last 16 after Wrexham defeated Reading 2-0 at the Stok Cae Ras.

Before the Reading game, Wrexham made its fourth appearance in the 1977-78 season aware of this fact.

In truth, the manager said to us before training yesterday, and it just demonstrates where the club is going, according to Broadhead.

“We’ve made history tonight, and we’re hoping we’ll make more.”
