Wrexham's chief executive Mike Williamson has stated that the club's relatively quiet transfer window is due to increased competition from bigger clubs for top-level talent. The Red Dragons have brought in three new players as they aim for a Championship promotion push, following 1-1 draws against Cardiff City and Watford.
Williamson told Radio Wales Sport that Wrexham already possess the foundations of a strong Championship squad and are focused on adding quality rather than quantity. The club has recruited goalkeeper Anthony Patterson, wing-back Danny Imray, and midfielder Ben Whiteman.
Despite these additions, manager Phil Parkinson reportedly desires more business before the transfer window closes on Tuesday, 1 September. Williamson explained that Wrexham is now competing for players with not only Premier League and top Championship clubs, but also teams in the top five leagues across Europe.
The club is specifically looking to enhance its attacking options, with Williamson acknowledging the challenge of finding a top-quality striker. Wrexham will host Birmingham on Friday, 28 August, and then travel to Millwall the day after the transfer window concludes.
