# Goal Machine Returns: Wrexham Recall Red-Hot Paul Mullin After Scoring Spree at Wigan — Phil Parkinson Hails His Incredible Form
In a sensational development that has sent Wrexham fans into a frenzy, Paul Mullin — the club’s prolific goal scorer and fan favourite — has been recalled from his loan spell at Wigan Athletic after a blistering run of form that reignited his reputation as one of the deadliest strikers in English football’s lower tiers.
During his short stint with Wigan, Mullin was nothing short of electric. The forward bagged 8 goals in 9 appearances, including two stunning braces that turned games on their heads. His relentless energy, sharp movement, and instinctive finishing quickly made him a fan hero at the DW Stadium.
But now, as Wrexham continue to push for promotion in League One, manager Phil Parkinson has decided the time is right to bring his talisman home.
> “Paul’s been outstanding — his confidence is sky-high, and you can see he’s back to his best,” Parkinson said. “He’s not just scoring goals; he’s leading by example. Bringing him back was a no-brainer. He’s the heartbeat of this club.”
Mullin’s return couldn’t come at a better moment. Wrexham have struggled for consistency in front of goal in recent weeks, and his presence promises to inject renewed firepower and belief. With his trademark determination and eye for the spectacular, the 29-year-old striker could once again become the difference-maker in the club’s quest to climb the table.
Fans took to social media moments after the announcement, with one supporter posting:
> “Mullin’s back where he belongs — the Racecourse Ground! Let the goals rain again!”
The move also underlines the ambition of co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, who have continuously backed Parkinson’s push for sustainable success both on and off the pitch. Mullin, who has been central to the Wrexham story since the club’s Hollywood-backed revival, is seen as more than just a player — he’s a symbol of the team’s modern fairytale.
As the Red Dragons prepare for a string of crucial fixtures, all eyes will be on Mullin once again — the goal machine, the fan favourite, and the man who has become the face of Wrexham’s resurgence.
Welcome home, Paul Mullin — Wrexham’s sharpest weapon is back.
