Wrexham Releases Six, Retains Aaron James, Extends Two Youngsters

The decisions signal a pivot toward younger options following injury-hit seasons for senior players.

Overview

  • Wrexham published its end-of-season retained list, confirming six out-of-contract players will leave.
  • Jay Rodriguez and Andy Cannon headline the departures after injuries curtailed their impact, with Rodriguez limited to 36 minutes across eight games and Cannon out since February 2025 before a loan at Burton Albion.
  • The club also released Reuben Egan, Callum Edwards, Tom Kelly and Max Purvis, none of whom have made a first-team appearance.
  • Wrexham exercised a contract option on defender Aaron James, keeping him under contract through the summer of 2027.
  • Homegrown players Alex Moore and Rio Owen signed new deals as the club reshapes for another Championship push after finishing seventh, two points short of the play-offs.
