Ollie Palmer, who has recently been sidelined from the Wrexham team, is expected to depart the club during the summer transfer window of 2025. Following the signing of Kieffer Moore, Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson has acknowledged Palmer’s need for more playing time, stating that the striker “has been brilliant for us” and is ready to move on.
Reports indicate that multiple clubs, including AFC Wimbledon and MK Dons, have shown interest in the forward, although his current wages may complicate any potential transfer. Palmer’s father expressed disappointment over his son’s exclusion from the team, particularly after Wrexham’s performance against Bolton, where he felt a return to the earlier striking partnership could have been beneficial.
Palmer began the season as a key player, scoring three league goals and earning a contract extension that would keep him at Wrexham until 2026. However, his playing time decreased following the introduction of new strikers in January. Parkinson explained the decision to drop Palmer, emphasizing the competitiveness of the league and the necessity for players to consistently contribute scoring opportunities.
Despite this challenging situation, there is a sense of hope as Palmer seeks opportunities to revitalize his career at a new club, potentially finding a position where he can flourish. The journey ahead may open new doors for his professional development, and fans will be watching closely as he embarks on this next chapter.
