Wrexham A.F.C. will face Sunderland in a preseason match on Aug. 2 at Subaru Park.

What's happening?

The Welsh club, co-owned by Rob McElhenney, is returning to the US for a three-game preseason tour.

The tour is part of the club's effort to connect with its growing North American fanbase.

Why it matters for Wrexham A.F.C.?

Wrexham's ownership group has leaned heavily into the American market, with repeated summer tours designed to expand the club's profile and commercial footprint.

A Philadelphia-area match carries added significance given McElhenney's hometown ties and the club's growing local following.

What comes next?

Wrexham currently sits in an English Championship playoff position, putting the club in contention for promotion to the Premier League.

If Wrexham were to secure promotion, the Philadelphia-area preseason match would take on added significance, potentially marking one of the club's first appearances in the US as a newly promoted Premier League side. | Stat | Value | | --- | --- | | Match Date | Aug. 2 | | Opponent | Sunderland | | Location | Subaru Park
