WREXHAM'S Hollywood co-owner Rob McElhenney has hilariously suggested his club could lodge an offer for Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Manchester United star has sensationally confirmed he wants to leave after just one year back at Old Trafford.
Interest in his services is high, but McElhenney, 45, has jokingly confirmed that Wrexham are lining up a swoop.

And the pair have got big plans for the club – not least eyeing a move for Ronaldo.
Reacting to a social media post about Ronaldo wanting to leave United if a suitable offer was lodged, McElhenney jokingly wrote: "Define suitable."
