UFC legend Conor McGregor has surprisingly linked-up with Wrexham to help promote his new drink.
The National League side are owned by Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.
And the two stars have joined forces with McGregor to help him sell his Forged Irish Stout at the Turf Hotel before Wrexham face Yeovil tomorrow.
All takings will be handed to striker Paul Mullin’s supported charity Your Space, which helps people suffering from autism.
McGregor took to Twitter to reveal his delight at helping the good cause and to team-up with the Welsh side.
He said: “Taking my Forged Stout tank into the absolute magic that is happening at Wrexham, and in aid of helping a great charity ‘Your Space’ that raises awareness and support for autism.

Meanwhile, Turf Hotel owner Wayne Jones tweeted: “This Tuesday before Yeovil we will be selling McGregor’s very own Irish Stout from a mobile truck by the marquee.
“We will be donating all sales to Mullin’s backed charity Your Space. I’m told it’s a belting pint so all support would be very much appreciated.”
Wrexham are on the verge of promotion to League Two with three games of the season remaining.

They are one point ahead of Notts County but have a game in hand.
Meanwhile, Yeovil could be relegated if they fail to beat Wrexham or Aldershot pick up a win versus Wealdstone.
McGregor has not stepped into the octagon since losing to Dustin Poirier in 2021 and he has hinted that he could switch to WWE after they were taken over by the Endeavour Group, who also own the UFC.
His Forged Stout is not the Irishman’s first business venture in the alcohol world, he also owns whisky brand Proper No. Twelve.
