Exclusive: Wrexham submit club-record bid for Sidiki Cherif

Wrexham has submitted a club-record £19 million bid for Angers' striker Sidiki Cherif, aiming to secure his signature before the January transfer window closes. This bid surpasses the previous Championship record of £17.5 million set by Ipswich when they signed Sindre Walle Egeli. With Cherif having made 19 appearances and scoring four goals for Angers this season, Wrexham is not alone in pursuing him; Crystal Palace, Newcastle, Sunderland, and Fulham are also interested. The Welsh club hopes to strengthen their squad and push for a play-off spot in the Championship.
