Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenny are in FIFA 23

WREXHAM AFC owners, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenny, can be heard giving commentary on matches in FIFA 23.

Football fans will know the Hollywood stars purchased the Welsh club in 2020, becoming the co-owners.

But what few fans know is that the pair recorded voice lines to be played during commentary for Wrexham matches in FIFA 23.

Despite only being in the National League, Wrexham has appeared in FIFA since FIFA 22 when Reynolds and McElhenny bought the club.

The team can be found under Rest of the World, and can be used in Career Mode, Kick-Off and friendly matches.

As spotted by Polygon, Wrexham playing fans have now spotted the actors giving commentary during matches.

Using Wrexham to play against Liverpool, or rivals Stockport County, will provide you with some quips from the owners.

Against Liverpool, the pair start off by saying: “This is a big club, against a very small club.

“Giant, massive, against a miniscule, improvisational version of a football club.

“Of course we’re talking about Liverpool.”

When playing against Stockport, Reynolds says he wants to deliver, “31 flavours of humiliation” against their rivals.

It is possible that there are more voice lines from the pair in the game that have so far gone undiscovered.

Fans believe that the lines were likely in the game since its launch in September, but went unnoticed for a few reasons.

Firstly, as a smaller club it is unlikely that players would have chosen match-ups such as the one against Liverpool. 

Also, many people play with the game muted, or skip the pre-game commentary where the voice lines can be found.

Now that some have been discovered, fans are certain to look for more.
