"It was always Wrexham" 😭🥰 WE LOVE YOU ARTHUR!

[@tommantek3632]

I seriously teared up when he said that, along with "I didn't look at anyone else". I was dumbfounded but then I felt, he must really love Wrexham.

[@PamelaRWKandt]

We are seeing a whole new Arthur! He was so serious & reserved last season and didn't let that sobriety go until promotion. I've been eager to see the real Arthur emerge -- there he is! He's played the game so smart on & off the pitch. Big maturity for a 22-y/o kid. Really proud of him for handling Wrexham so well. Welcome home, Arthur! ❤

[@elitzanicolaou7977]

He definitely seems more relaxed, but he also is just a more reserved, introverted person than, say, Foster or McClean-which led a lot of people to say at the end of last season that he didn’t want to stay. As a relatively shy 22-year-old that went from complete anonymity to worldwide rockstar status overnight, I think he did absolutely brilliantly with the pressure and the complete shift in his life.

[@connorthew5418]

As an arsenal fan was kind of hoping he resigned but he was brilliant for Wrexham last season and hope he continues to grow

[@hordemagetvgaming7229]

I wish i could move from Sweden and come watch some games. Been following this club for a long time. Welcome Arthur, it is a great sign to get this awesome keeper!

[@bricktop2090]

You have a Premiership keeper, well done Wrexham🏆

[@luchitobeats2652]

Do you know what nemesis means?

[@codenamenel]

@@luchitobeats2652 you dont wanna get bitten now do you sweetheart

[@DS9TREK]

Not quite, he's more of a Championship player. There's a reason why no PL teams bid for me.

[@ross6343]

I just watched a video of Arthur Okonkwo's 'saves' from this past season and - WOW - Wrexham has a Premier League goalkeeper [goalie]. Okonkwo is no longer Wrexham's secret weapon...the dude should put the fear of God into opposing teams!

[@lifevision1254]

Such a beautiful soul. Delighted that he has signed with Wrexham, such a cool, passionate and committed guy! That jaw injury was insane. 🌞

[@josemorales2224]

Premiership goaltender, means premier league!!!! well done Rob and Ryan- i'm hooked, i'm a wrexham fan and can't wait to see you here in Vancouver July 27th

[@slmicheljames]

Dude is young, athletic and a great person. Love Wrexham and everything they r doing in Wales and the World!!!❤

[@CK4RC]

"It was always Wrexham." So happy to keep Arthur with the club!

[@carlrowland3757]

This is massive for Wrexham. I’m a Liverpool fan but this lad is the perfect fit for Wrexham and he has already proved that. I wish him all the best.

[@hotfmnews9755]

WE HAVE OUR OWN PREMIER LEAGUE GOALKEEPER, WELCOME HOME ARTHUR,WISHING ALL THE BEST🥰🥰🥰

[@marthaschoenthal4646]

Arthur has to duck to go through most doors and puts that amazing wingspan to good use in front of the net! So glad he's signed. Looking forward to seeing Arthur play in Vancouver BC!

[@sabungay]

What a massive signing

[@raymondblood6322]

arthur is a credit to his parents real nice guy the robins are very lucky to have him we are going up again.

[@hexshaw5349]

5:57 that dap with Parky is insane lol

[@pjones2303]

Go all in Arthur take the number #1 👍

[@malevellysian]

seems like a really lovely guy. go on arthur!

[@joannefairclough7960]

Fantastic news! Welcome back Arthur you are just a fantastic player and were a lynchpin last season! Congrats and best wishes for the coming season!

[@astronomenov99]

Wow, Arthur has to stoop to go through most doorways. King Arthur!

[@jaykelley9881]

You can tell he's really happy. He's gonna have a blast in America

[@LOSTshowfan]

Have to agree, Arthur. #1 is nice! Bring on League 1.

[@jgbpforlyf]

Poor Steven Fletcher and Mark Howard didn't get AAA videos for their one year contract extension signings! 😆 I know the Wrexham AFC media department are probably overworked, but fans would've lapped that up! Congratulations all the same, Mr Okonkwo!!!

[@wilmaknickersfit]

With all due respect to the two guys, at 37 years old they're at the end of their playing careers. It's great to see them staying, but Arthur signing as a free agent is a different kettle of fish altogether. 🎉

[@natifv]

this is huge! so glad arthur decided to stay. looking forward to seeing him in a wrexham shirt in league one

[@Hourani95]

Finally some good news on a priority signing! Hopefully we fill those gaps we let go with more league one ready players !

[@familydinner1]

Best signing we could have hoped for in the off season. DUN NAH NAH NAH NAH OKONKWO!

[@jph418]

“No comment”. Brilliant!!

[@LauraLizSmith]

Look how happy Phil looks!

[@sempatid5015]

He looks happier!

[@darrinatorrr]

FANTASTIC!!

[@CarolP-uk]

What a lovely guy, so pleased he has signed for Wrexham 👏🏻👏🏻

[@WrexhamAFCfanzone]

Great news! Loved the timing of the announcement with a Saturday 3pm kick off time!

[@BensleyDRAKE]

Massive at the end of last I kept thinking how the Keepers were important for our success (or lack there of) since season the first season and wondered after Fozzy and Okonkwo (Which btw in Kenya its slang for Bossman or Big Man) where the next guy will clme from to top them....Congrats to the Team good job do far! Regards from Kenya

[@almaz4346]

So happy, great news!!!

[@welshwizard645]

TEARS OF JOY

[@dinksterling]

OMG!! thats such great news!!!

[@kevjacko1974]

Bloody beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤

[@gonzo529]

3 more years!!!

[@rerun3283]

🎉it's a great day

[@Bootcamp4]

Smart move would be to have extensions added to his contract if the team goes up to the championship so he’s locked in for 4-5 years (of course his salary should match championship level Keepers if Wrexham goes up again)

[@Reticulosis]

🎶 🎵 Red is your color! Red is your color! Red is your color Okonkwo ! Okonkwo on goal, on goal Okonkwo! Red is your color! Red is your color! Red is your color Okonkwo ! 🎵 🎶

[@m_wxm7950]

Love it

[@hoofie2002]

A great move he really is an outstanding player and will only grow from here

[@charlesgough3528]

Having Arthur back gives me hope for promotion. YES!

[@jesusgutierrez3595]

I love Arthur he’s a massive signing!

[@rebekahanderson5020]

Arthur is an adorable brick wall 😍

[@thecallawaykid1763]

I want to hug Arthur more than the missus! Big honk of love … come here for a cwtch! Up the town.. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@WrexhamAFCfanzone]

Give him a pillow!🤣

[@JRJ-]

awesome news!

[@Cenowy]

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@d-rot]

Oh, fuck yes!

[@voidreact]

FUCK YEAH GREAT SIGN

[@tcrlrunner1128]

Just saying Arthur, you may be attached to the shirt 33 but you are a no 1, and Wrexham will only need their no 1 to take them all the way.

[@CazFromWales87]

Awesome news! Great to have you back Arthur

[@nunoc7875]

great news! go wrexham... one more promotion

[@FirmNo]

Love how the coach at the start of the video called him arter 😂

[@davidmiddleton6479]

This is huge. We are the only ones in L1 that can give him branding and exposure that his agent wants. Enjoy these 3 years. Don’t mean to throw a bucket on it but he’s a 3 year signing only. He will sell on in 27-28 for millions of dollars

[@striderwhiston9897]

tbf he was getting offers from the championship but he likely wanted assured game time so went back to us

[@Lupin788]

Three years is a long-term contract in football.

[@pauljanto66]

I've heard there is an option for 4th as well

[@hometechUK]

Great news & nice to see the new CEO is in Wrexham.

[@LesnJayme]

Great news! Well done Arthur!

[@sabungay]

Look how happy Parky looks

[@pauljanto66]

this is likely scenes from W2W season 4 episode 1

[@WxmRed]

YES Arthur 😍

[@jeremysmallman1645]

Hello all from the Maritimes, east coast of Canada. Big fan of the TV series, and budding club fan. I'm trying to access the store on the club website to buy a jersey, and maybe some other merch. I keep getting an error message, and the page will not load. Could there possibly be another source to buy some swag? I'd like to make sure it is a legitimate source, with the funds going to help the team. Cheers.

[@mgharvey3657]

Yes!!!!

[@justinduque441]

Any random chance Arthur is holding the new Wrexham home kit?

[@JohnJones-vb8rl]

Absolutely brilliant signing says it all really

[@jasondourden1317]

🥳🇦🇺

[@davidmiddleton6479]

We need a left defensive midfielder please. Idt Jacob will thrive in L1. Idk.

[@grantbender1323]

You dont like George Evans?

[@SianBlair]

so pleased that he's signed

[@Bigturboguy]

you need to put in some taller doors for the poor bloke, lol

[@williammeaddows-ix1cn]

[@RoMEBlitZ]

It’s weird seeing how Wrexham buildings were so ran down and now it’s completely changed
