Wrexham have agreed a club-record deal to sign Ipswich Town forward and Everton academy graduate Nathan Broadhead, according to Sky Sports reporter Anthony Joseph.
Broadhead moved to Ipswich back in 2023, ending a 15-year association with the Toffees. The Welsh international featured regularly over the years for Ipswich, playing a role in helping them gain promotion back to the Premier League. Broadhead found it difficult to make the grade at Everton before dropping down to League One, and his career has been on an upward trajectory since.
Wrexham are in the market for new additions in the summer transfer window as they continue to climb the leagues in England. Phil Parkinson's side recently gained promotion to the Championship, but the owners are showing huge ambition, and they'll no doubt be hoping to make the step up once again and reach the heights of the Premier League.

"Wrexham have agreed a record £10m deal to sign Ipswich Town winger Nathan Broadhead. It’s understood the Wales international is on his way to Wrexham today to undergo a medical and finalise the paperwork on his move."
Broadhead's versatility could make him a useful option for Parkinson. The 27-year-old can play out wide as well as through the middle of attack, and his goal record during his time at Ipswich was impressive. Broadhead scored 23 league goals in 76 games for Ipswich, an impressive return across three different divisions.
Importantly, Broadhead struck 13 times for Ipswich in their promotion season of the Championship, so Wrexham will be hoping he can replicate that this term.
