Wrexham captain Ben Tozer has lifted the lid on the club's upcoming trip to Las Vegas for their promotion celebrations.

Tozer's Wrexham will make their return to the Football League next season for the first time in 15 years, having stormed the National League with the thanks of their Hollywood owners.

Despite being pursued vigorously by Notts County, Wrexham captured the league title with a game to spare in front of co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.

The Canadian and American actors, producers and businessmen have been praised for their work in Wales since purchasing the club in 2021, and also for doing things slightly differently.

That includes a post-season trip to Vegas, with the celebrations only just ending in the UK before they head stateside.

Speaking after an open-top bus parade, Tozer said: "It's been absolute chaos. It's so enjoyable, everyone enjoyed themselves yesterday.

"There wasn't as much alcohol because we're going to Vegas tomorrow so we're putting the party on hold.

"Last week or so it's been quite stressful trying to sort out the itinerary but it's very, very good, let's put it that way. We're going for four days."

The trip to Nevada will likely be a career highlight for most of the squad, but upon returning it's about recharging the batteries and getting back to business.

"As soon as we get back from Vegas it will be complete family time," Tozer said.

"We got our schedule yesterday for the off-season which is a few weeks' rest so after Vegas, back down to earth, because we crave that family time during the season. Then we'll get fit and go again."

Adding further on the weeks of celebrations, Tozer revealed one of his biggest heroes is now aware of who he is.

"I'm a massive Elton John fan and Ryan knows that as well," Tozer said.

"He sent me a message the other day saying Elton John's been on the phone to him and he sent him a photo of me dressed as Elton John!"
