Former Liverpool chief executive Peter Moore says he is to work as an adviser at National League club Wrexham.
Moore left Liverpool in July after three years as chief executive, having previously worked for Sega, Microsoft, EA and sportswear giant Reebok.
Moore, who spent more than 30 years in the USA, watched Wrexham as a youngster and lived in north Wales.
"He [Moore] can only be a great addition to the club going forward," said Wrexham manager Dean Keates.
"He's doing it from the fact he's a Wrexham lad so he knows the identity of the club and the community and it would be a great bit of business to have him involved."
Moore's arrival would be the latest chapter in Wrexham's unexpected recent history, with Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney set to take over at the club.
"I'll provide help as an adviser to the club that gave me so many great moments in the historic seasons of the '70s and to the community in which I lived before leaving for the US, not be as an employee or in a full-time capacity, but just as someone that wants to give back," Moore wrote on social media., external
Moore also referred to former Wrexham players Albert Kinsey, Eddie May, Arfon Griffiths and Joey Jones.
He said he was "delighted to be able to help" McElhenney and Reynolds, whose takeover of the Racecourse club is close to being confirmed.

Wrexham have declined to comment on the suggestion that Moore, who oversaw Liverpool's first Premier League title win in 2019-20, is to take a role with them.
McElhenney and Reynolds have said they want to turn Wrexham into "a global force", while manager Keates believes the new owners will take the Dragons "to the next level" financially.
