Coady leaves Wrexham by mutual consent
Defender Conor Coady leaves Wrexham following the mutual termination of his contract with the Championship club.
Conor Coady has departed Wrexham after the club and player mutually agreed to end his contract with the team. The English centre-back transferred to Wrexham from Leicester City during the 2025 summer transfer window, with a reported transfer fee of around £2 million. Coady's contract with Wrexham was set to expire at the end of the current season, but the club had the option to extend it by another 12 months.
However, the club and player have decided to part ways. Wrexham AFC expressed their gratitude towards Coady for his contributions during his time at the club and wished him success in the future. Wrexham is in the process of finalizing a deal to sign central defender Joe Worrall from Championship side Burnley. Coady made his debut for Wrexham in the opening five games of the 2025-26 season but quickly dropped down the list of priorities at the club.
He was subsequently loaned out to Charlton Athletic for the middle of the season, making 12 appearances for the Addicks. Coady has not played in any of Wrexham's squads for upcoming matches across all competitions this season. Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson is still looking to strengthen his team by signing another defender before the transfer deadline at 23:00 BST on Tuesday.
