Ollie Palmer admits he is glad he bought into the Wrexham project after signing a fresh contract with the club.
The forward, 32, joined Phil Parkinson’s side from Wimbledon in the summer of 2022 and has enjoyed back-to-back promotions during his time with the club.
Ahead of Wrexham’s trip to Rotherham United on Saturday (15:00 BST), Palmer put pen to paper on a new deal to remain at the Stok Racecourse until the end of the 2025-26 season.
And Palmer – who has netted two goals in League One so far this term – believes Wrexham have “many more ambitions” to achieve under Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.
“When I spoke to the gaffer before I signed, he told me his vision and where the club was going,” he explained.
“When you add it all up and you look at the owners of the football club, the foundations, the fanbase, the community and the passion within Wrexham and the surrounding areas, why not buy into it.
“It’s proved successful so far and I’m sure the club’s got many more ambitions and things they want to achieve on and off the pitch.
“It’s a great project to be a part of.”
Wrexham sit second ahead of their fixture with Steve Evans’ Rotherham at the weekend.
Despite there being 36 league fixtures remaining this season, Palmer believes Wrexham have already proven they are capable of challenging for a top six place.
“It’s only 10 games into League One but I think we’ve shown we can chuck our hat into the ring and compete with the best teams in the league,” added Palmer.
“It’s down to us to keep growing on that momentum, and we’re doing that, we work hard every single day.
“The gaffer doesn’t let anyone get complacent and we’ll be working towards our target of what we believe we can achieve this season.
“It won’t be easy because there’s a lot of big football clubs in this league, but I think we’ve shown we can compete there.”
