  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  A number of proven top-flight performers, including Tom Cairney and Jamie Vardy, have seen moves to SToK Racecourse speculated on. Tottenham defender Ben Davies is among the latest to generate transfer talk.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  The 32-year-old Wales international could be a shrewd addition for Wrexham, but players of his ilk – that have graced the World Cup and Champions League – are expected to attract plenty of interest and would command big wages.

  WHAT EFL PUNDIT SAID

  Reacting to the recruitment rumours coming out of North Wales, former EFL player turned pundit Don Goodman told : “It seems every player that Wrexham are linked with seems to be the wrong side of 30, but at 32-years-old, and with all that experience, I can understand the appeal of Ben Davies.

  “He’s a player that’s looked after himself, so he’s still probably got a few years left. Would he want to drop to the Championship? Maybe. He's only started 14 Premier League games last season and 12 the season before, so from his personal perspective, he is now at an age where he needs to be playing football week in and week out, and a club like Wrexham would give him that opportunity.

  “It may be a case, though, that he may get better offers, with respect to Wrexham, so we'll wait and see.”
