Liberato Cacace has watched every episode of ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ – now he himself will feature in the Disney+ documentary.
The left-back is among Wrexham’s summer signings, joining from Empoli on a three-year deal as the club pepare for life in the Championship.
Some might raise eyebrows at a player swapping Italy – even though he is leaving a club relegated from Serie A – to play in England’s second tier.
But for 24-year-old Cacace the move is about fulfilling an ambition and not because of what he has seen over four seasons of the documentary charting the rise of the club under the ownership of Hollywood owners Rob McElhenney and Ryan Renolds.
“It’s a great doco, and I’ve watched all the seasons,” Cacace told BBC Sport Wales.
“There was interest in Italy, but for me, I’m a big football fan as well.
“I watch a lot of football and I’ve always watched English football, from the Premier League to the Championship as well so I know the level I’m heading into.
“It was always a big dream of mine to play in the UK.
“Obviously Wrexham having so much publicity in the media as well you could see what the club was like.
“It’s a very exciting project and I’m also very excited to start the season as well.”
