Pavel Šulc transfer negotiations with Wrexham AFC

Overview

Wrexham AFC attempted to sign Czech forward Pavel Šulc from Olympique Lyonnais with a transfer bid reportedly exceeding €40 million. Šulc rejected the offer, stating he did not wish to play in the English Championship or live in a small town in Wales.

Following the rejection, Lyon has reportedly set a higher valuation of approximately €50 million for the player. While Šulc declined Wrexham, he indicated a move to Juventus could be possible under certain conditions. Other clubs, including Leeds United, Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, and Atlético de Madrid, are reportedly monitoring his situation.

Recent reports confirm that the 25-year-old Czech international continues to attract significant interest from major European clubs following a season in which he recorded 15 goals and 10 assists. While Wrexham’s record offer of approximately £35 million was declined, Šulc described the club as a “cult club with a Hollywood fairytale story.”

Despite interest from Atlético Madrid, Aston Villa, Juventus, and Leeds United, Lyon is expected to retain Šulc through the end of the current season. The club is reportedly looking toward a potential transfer in the summer of 2027, noting that the player remains under contract until June 2029.
