The prolific frontman was one of the first marquee signings to be completed by Hollywood co-owners at SToK Racecourse following their stunning takeover in 2021. Mullin arrived with plenty of pedigree, as a proven Football League goalscorer, but has quickly become a club legend in North Wales.

Mullin has helped to deliver back-to-back promotions for Wrexham, with the 2023-24 campaign seeing him become a centurion for the Red Dragons as he reached 105 goals in total through 140 appearances. He did endure injury struggles at the start of the season, but bounced back in style.
DID YOU KNOW?
Mullin’s exploits have been recognised with another Player of the Year award. The 29-year-old has won that prize in each of his three seasons with Wrexham, such is his importance to the collective cause, and he has become the first man to achieve a hat-trick of triumphs for the ambitious Welsh outfit.
WHAT NEXT FOR MULLIN?
Wrexham have their talismanic No.10 tied to a contract through to 2027, meaning that he will be back for more in League One next season. There promises to be a few fresh faces alongside him, with Reynolds and McElhenney preparing to make more funds available in the summer transfer window.
