EFL League One News

Sam Smith secured a point for Wrexham in a 2-2 draw against Cambridge United on Tuesday, as the League One promotion hopefuls missed out on a chance to extend their buffer over Wycombe Wanderers.

Wrexham reported record financial results for their first year back in the EFL in the latest chapter of the club's success story.

Wrexham made progress in their hunt for automatic promotion from League One on Saturday as they moved into second place with a 1-0 win over 10-man Stockport County.

Mark Ogden explains why Wrexham would find it difficult to take the next step to the Premier League, if they were to achieve League One promotion this season.

Wrexham's rise from nonleague has truly been the stuff of Hollywood legend -- no surprise given their owners. But can they now actually get to the Premier League from here?
