Story summary
- Wrexham AFC used a taxpayer-funded £18 million grant to pay for a £1.7 million pitch upgrade in 2025.
- The upgrade added heating, drainage and stitching after a £18 million contract was signed on 17 September 2025, though the February 2022 £3.8 million tranche omitted the works.
- Finance expert Stefan Borson said the addition raised ethical concerns given the club’s Championship status and private-equity backing.
- Council leader Mark Pritchard said due diligence was completed and rejected misuse claims.
