We’ve got Mullin, Super Paul Mullin…A chant that may no longer be based in fact, following today’s confirmation that Wrexham had parted ways with the striker whose scoring exploits played a pivotal role in the club’s rapid rise. An agreement has been reached to pay up the final year of his contract, meaning he will become a free agent.After 110 goals in 172 appearances to go with three consecutive promotions, Mullin’s hero status is assured at The Racecourse Ground, meaning the terrace ditty in his honour seems certain to live on.As it should. He remains the undoubted poster boy for Wrexham’s revival during the Hollywood era. He has not played for the club since February 2025 but fans’ affection for him remains strong.Mullin was once dubbed by co-owner Rob Mac as “the most famous footballer in the United States after Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo”, and even if that is no longer the case after this summer’s World Cup in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, Mullin was key to the revival of not just a football club but also a town.It was his dramatic late double in stoppage time that fired Wrexham to Wembley for the only time under Mac and Ryan Reynolds.Ryan Reynolds proudly displays his Paul Mullin jersey (Getty Images)It was Mullin’s 38 league goals that fired Wrexham back into the English Football League in 2023, a campaign that also saw Mullin presented with the FA Cup Golden Boot award at the final after scoring eight goals.It was his devastating burst of nine goals in seven games during the run-in that fired Wrexham to promotion from League Two.Picking a favourite among all his goals isn’t easy, even for the Liverpudlian. He tends to veer between the outrageous lob from outside the penalty area against Stockport County to break the deadlock in the 2022 FA Trophy semi-final and the curled effort that put Wrexham in front a year or so later on the night promotion back to the EFL was clinched with victory over Boreham Wood.Mullin being Mullin, he added a second goal for good measure on both occasions.Goals were his business, so much so that he never quite got over being denied a hat-trick at Aldershot Town in February 2023, when his backheel was credited to home defender Corey Jordan as an own goal.For the next 18 months or so, any interviewer who brought up his record of 38 goals in that promotion season or his six hat-tricks in Wrexham colours would be quickly cut off and told both figures were out by one.
