James McClean has completed a move to Wrexham after the movie star-owned club reached an agreement with Wigan Athletic on a £250,000 deal. The Welsh outfit offered the Irish international what are described as "Championship wages" as they make their own return to the English Football League for the first time in 15 years. That rise has come due to Wrexham's immense commercial potential under the ownership of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, and such a move is a sign of how they plan to quickly accelerate through League Two, as well. McClean had experienced very different issues at finance-stricken Wigan over the last season, but was still expected to stay there. The offer from Wrexham proved too good to turn down, though, and the Independent was been told the winger quickly became unlikely to feature in the opening League One fixture away to Derby County - with the move soon being confirmed within hours. Wrexham start their own campaign at home to MK Dons on Saturday, having spent part of pre-season Stateside playing against the likes of Chelsea, LA Galaxy’s second-string side and a team of Manchester United youngsters. Read More Gary Lineker worried about Tottenham’s campaign with or without Harry Kane Women’s World Cup LIVE: Latest news and updates as England prepare for last-16 Bayern awaiting Tottenham response on ‘final’ offer for Harry Kane

Gary Lineker admits he is concerned for Tottenham this season regardless of whether or not Harry Kane makes the “fantastic” move to Bayern Munich. Kane – Tottenham and England’s all-time record goalscorer – has been heavily linked with a move to the Bundesliga champions this summer and Bayern have already had two bids knocked back in their efforts to land the striker. Reports on Friday claimed the Bavarians had made a third – and final – bid for the striker of more than 100 million euros (£86million), also setting Spurs a midnight deadline to accept or reject the offer. The 30-year-old is out of contract at the end of the upcoming campaign and is reportedly keen on a move to Germany. Spurs finished eighth last season – their lowest placing in the Premier League since 2008 – despite Kane weighing in with 30 goals, second only to Erling Haaland. “I’m concerned for Spurs either way, whatever happens with Harry,” Lineker told the PA news agency. “I have been concerned about them for a while, I see where they ended last season and they are in the worst position they had been in for quite some time. “They have made an exceptional signing in James Maddison, he is a better player than a lot of people think, I think he is absolutely top class. Obviously, it is personal record versus a near-guarantee to win trophies at Bayern, so I think it will be an exciting move for him Gary Lineker “That is a good addition but they are a long, long way short. The new manager (Ange Postecoglou) could make a difference, but Harry, the goals he scores, take that away from any team it would be hugely difficult. It is time to rebuild for Tottenham – rebuild, rethink, re-plan.” One temptation for Kane to remain at Spurs is the tantalising prospect of becoming the Premier League’s all-time record goalscorer. He is currently on 213, second on the list to Alan Shearer, and needs 48 goals to surpass the former Southampton, Blackburn and Newcastle striker. However, Lineker – who is launching him own independent podcast, ‘The Rest is Football’, alongside Shearer – feels trophies would mean more to Kane than individual accomplishments. “Obviously, it is personal record versus a near-guarantee to win trophies at Bayern, so I think it will be an exciting move for him,” added Lineker. “It is a team game, I was as selfish as anybody and I’ve spoken to Alan Shearer as well, I asked him ‘what would you take, the Premier League record or your Premier League trophy?’ Straight away he said the trophy. “I have got three golden boots from three different clubs (Leicester, Everton and Tottenham) – a record in itself – but if I had to give one of those away or my FA Cup, I would give one of those away – it is a team game, you are in it to win the big prizes, personal records are wonderful but they are secondary.” Very few England players have opted to move abroad in the past but Lineker is someone who chose to do so – thriving on and off the pitch during a three-year stint at Barcelona, leaving in 1989 to sign for Tottenham. “Everybody is different but if you are of the mind of wanting to experience different things and enriching your life and learning different cultures, it is absolutely the right thing to do,” the 62-year-old said. “What Jude Bellingham has done at Borussia Dortmund and now with Real Madrid has been amazing, but obviously it is a personal choice. I don’t know what Harry is going to do, I suspect he will go. “I think it will be a fantastic move for him, he is guaranteed to score goals, German football is really attacking and it will suit him. “He would be going to one of the best clubs in world football, they win trophies every year, a beautiful city – my only advice would be try and learn German because it would be appreciated and help him settle in. If he goes.” :: Gary Lineker was talking to mark the launch of ‘The Rest is Football’ and independent podcast he will host alongside Alan Shearer and Micah Richards.

There’s a scandal rocking professional ice hockey, and it centres around The Seattle Kraken and their center Alex Wennberg and a TikTok community. The 28-year-old has been singled out by a wider online audience recently, and his new notoriety has not gone down well with himself or his family. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter But what’s it all about? The Swedish athlete and his wife Felicia have accused social media users of sexual harassment after he became one of the biggest talking points in TikTok's book community. Active members of the community, dubbed BookTok, have been using Wennberg as the face of protagonists in their hockey-romance fantasy novels of late. However, the Wennbergs have claimed that the discourse surrounding the NHL player in the context of romantic fiction has gone too far. Alex posted a statement about his image being used as BookTok fantasies, writing: “The aggressive language about real-life players is too much. It has turned into daily and weekly comments on our personal social media. This is not something we support or want our child to grow up with. “All we ask for is a little respect and common sense moving forward. We can all take a joke and funny comments but when it turns personal and into something bigger that effects [sic] our family, we need to tell you that we've had enough. “Enough of sexual harassment, and harassment of our character and our relationship. Thank you for your understanding." Writing on social media, Felicia also claimed that the BookTok content featuring “crossed the line” and was “predatory”. She penned in her Instagram stories: “While I’m all for female empowerment and especially around sex, there have been videos and comments made that have crossed the line of what it means to fancy someone and when it actually sounds pretty predatory and [exploitative]. “What doesn’t sit with me is when your desires come with sexual harassment, inappropriate comments, and the fact that with the internet, we can normalize behavior that would never be ok if we flipped the genders around.” Felicia went on to compare the way her husband had been treated by BookTok to 'sexist catcalling'.
