Ryan Reynolds says he won't buy Brazilian club Santa Cruz

Wrexham co-owner Ryan Reynolds has responded to reports suggesting he is preparing to expand his football empire by acquiring a team in Brazil. Santa Cruz are the club in question, with Reynolds seeking to calm that speculation. He told ESPN ahead of Wrexham’s dramatic FA Cup fifth-round defeat to Premier League giants Chelsea: "I'm interested in spending the rest of my life in Brazil, but not in buying a club.

No, I already have a lot to deal with here. And I'm very grateful and lucky to be able to do this. I think I'd rather do one thing well than 50 things badly. So, you know, I can visit Brazil without all the pressure that comes with owning a club." Reynolds said he will make more trips to Brazil after enjoying the time he has spent there, noting that word of Wrexham’s exploits has reached that part of the world.

"I was in Brazil in 2024, in the summer of 2024. And I was shocked to see how many people know about Wrexham, and not just know about it, but follow the club.
