Travis and Jason Kelce tease road trip to WREXHAM after soccer club’s co-owner Rob McElhenney trolls NFL star over ‘incredibly wrong’ stereotype of Wales: ‘I should show you around’
Since taking over at Wrexham, McElhenney and fellow Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds have turned the north Wales club into one of the biggest stories in British football.
The actor responded to Kelce’s comments on social media, writing: ‘Yes, incredibly wrong. I should show you around someday. I might know a few people. See for yourself.’
The brothers seem open to the idea. Shortly after, the official New Heights account on X wrote: ‘Outta the House: Wrexham Edition?’ Outta the House is a common segment on the show.The two brothers also discussed soccer on this week’s podcast, with Jason insisting that watching Lionel Messi play for Inter Miami is not the same as seeing him in Europe or with the Argentina national team.
Messi lit up Arrowhead Stadium in Inter Miami’s win over Sporting Kansas City over the weekend but Jason said: ‘It’s not the same being in the MLS… I’m not sh****ng on the MLS.
He added: ‘I’m saying it’s not international soccer. When you think of soccer, I know there’s all these wonderful clubs overseas, there’s the MLS, I think of the World Cup, that’s all I’m saying. It’s international play and then everything else.’
‘You see one person on the biggest stage possible, with the biggest team in history,’ he explained. ‘This is the best soccer player at the World Cup. That’s different than seeing Lionel Messi tearing it up in Kansas City, just saying.’
