Lewis Brunt has spent much of this season watching Wrexham rather than playing for them, but has already seen enough to convince him that Phil Parkinson’s side can compete for promotion.
Wrexham are second in League One after bouncing back from defeat at Stockport with an emphatic win over Exeter City over the weekend.
Next up for the Dragons are seventh-placed Lincoln City on Tuesday night – and Brunt says Wrexham believe they can compete with any opponent in the third tier.
“If you look at the squad we have got, some of the names in there and some of the players, it’s just as good as anyone in the league,” the centre-back said.
“Every single player can come in and put on a performance so it’s no real shock to me where we are in the league.”
Brunt made his full league debut for Wrexham against Exeter having been forced to wait for opportunities since signing from Leicester City in the summer.
The 24-year-old says he has been assured by boss Parkinson that he will have a big part to play at the Stok Racecourse.
Having impressed in the Exeter win, Brunt will hope to keep his place against a Lincoln side who saw a six-game unbeaten run end against leaders Wycombe last Saturday.
“There’s no easy fixture in this league,” Brunt added. “We know what we are up against but we will be right and ready.”
