We are seeing a whole new Arthur! He was so serious & reserved last season and didn't let that sobriety go until promotion. I've been eager to see the real Arthur emerge -- there he is! He's played the game so smart on & off the pitch. Big maturity for a 22-y/o kid. Really proud of him for handling Wrexham so well. Welcome home, Arthur! ❤
He definitely seems more relaxed, but he also is just a more reserved, introverted person than, say, Foster or McClean-which led a lot of people to say at the end of last season that he didn’t want to stay. As a relatively shy 22-year-old that went from complete anonymity to worldwide rockstar status overnight, I think he did absolutely brilliantly with the pressure and the complete shift in his life.
@@DS9TREKso far he’s showing as if he’s a high end championship keeper. By next season, there’s a real chance a bottom premier team might take a try on him
I just watched a video of Arthur Okonkwo's 'saves' from this past season and - WOW - Wrexham has a Premier League goalkeeper [goalie]. Okonkwo is no longer Wrexham's secret weapon...the dude should put the fear of God into opposing teams!
I wish i could move from Sweden and come watch some games. Been following this club for a long time. Welcome Arthur, it is a great sign to get this awesome keeper!
Premiership goaltender, means premier league!!!! well done Rob and Ryan- i'm hooked, i'm a wrexham fan and can't wait to see you here in Vancouver July 27th
Arthur has to duck to go through most doors and puts that amazing wingspan to good use in front of the net! So glad he's signed. Looking forward to seeing Arthur play in Vancouver BC!
Massive at the end of last I kept thinking how the Keepers were important for our success (or lack there of) since season the first season and wondered after Fozzy and Okonkwo (Which btw in Kenya its slang for Bossman or Big Man) where the next guy will clme from to top them....Congrats to the Team good job do far! Regards from Kenya
He seems like such a genuinely cool guy. Wrexham are SO LUCKY 🍀 they got a Premier League-level goalie in Okonkwo 🎉❤👏👏🤘 Arthur, your braids are on point 👉
Poor Steven Fletcher and Mark Howard didn't get AAA videos for their one year contract extension signings! 😆 I know the Wrexham AFC media department are probably overworked, but fans would've lapped that up! Congratulations all the same, Mr Okonkwo!!!
With all due respect to the two guys, at 37 years old they're at the end of their playing careers. It's great to see them staying, but Arthur signing as a free agent is a different kettle of fish altogether. 🎉
One day I will be wealthy enough to come visit Wrexham and watch at least 2 games and meet the players. I am a huge Man United fan since 98 and now I have my fallen for my second wife that is Wrexham, don't know what I am going to do when they both play in the EPL in 2 years time 🤷♂🙈.... Congratulations Arthur.... Kingdom of Lesotho approves of this deal.... And you know what? I can be your talent scout here in Lesotho plus Wales and Lesotho have a long standing relationship ❤❤

Smart move would be to have extensions added to his contract if the team goes up to the championship so he’s locked in for 4-5 years (of course his salary should match championship level Keepers if Wrexham goes up again)
This is huge. We are the only ones in L1 that can give him branding and exposure that his agent wants. Enjoy these 3 years. Don’t mean to throw a bucket on it but he’s a 3 year signing only. He will sell on in 27-28 for millions of dollars
Hello all from the Maritimes, east coast of Canada. Big fan of the TV series, and budding club fan. I'm trying to access the store on the club website to buy a jersey, and maybe some other merch. I keep getting an error message, and the page will not load. Could there possibly be another source to buy some swag? I'd like to make sure it is a legitimate source, with the funds going to help the team. Cheers.
