Mullin out of USA tour after ‘minor spinal surgery’

Wrexham AFC have confirmed super Paul Mullin will miss the summer’s Wrex Coast Tour in the USA as he has “undergone minor spinal surgery” to correct a long-term lower-back/hamstring issue.

The club note that the three-time, back-to-back top scorer and Player of the Season has ‘managed the injury through conservative treatment following three years of concern’.

The club said, “However, during off-season training it became evident that this approach would not be able to continue and, following several consultations, it was determined that surgery would be the best way forward.

“Mullin underwent surgery in London in the middle of June to ensure he is fit for the majority of the 2024/25 campaign, as we look ahead to our first season back in Sky Bet League One.

“There is no timeframe as yet on Mullin’s return, who will work through rehab with the Club’s medical department to ensure he can return to full fitness.”
