Ex-Manchester United player training with former club as Wrexham transfer links persist

Former Manchester United midfielder Nick Powell is training with League Two Crewe Alexandra after being released by Stoke City.

Powell joined United from The Alex in 2012 after helping them to promotion. He went on to make only nine senior appearances during his time at Old Trafford, having been described as 'an exceptional talent' by Sir Alex Ferguson.

Powell was sent on various Championship loans before finally leaving permanently to Wigan Athletic, before joining Stoke. His time in the Potteries came to an end in the summer and he has been linked with Wrexham, owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.

A move to the National League champions would be a major coup for Wrexham and another statement of intent from the big-spending Welsh club.
