WHAT HAPPENED?
Barnett has been a standout for Wrexham this season and continued his impressive form by scoring the winners in the Red Dragons’ 1-0 win over Mansfield Town on Saturday. His performances haven’t gone unnoticed though, with Championship clubs Stoke City and Preston and Scottish Premiership outfit Rangers reportedly eyeing a move for the wing-back.

Wrexham co-owner Rob McElhenney has already issued a hands-off warning, and Barnett doesn’t seem interested in leaving the SToK Racecourse anytime soon after helping Wrexham reach the third tier of English football after arriving from Solihull Moors last year.
WHAT BARNETT SAID
“I’m loving it. The manager gives me that freedom when I go forward and gives me that confidence to take people on,” Barnett said. “All the lads have got that belief in me as well.
“I think that’s all you can ask for in football, you want to be confident and you want to be happy and I am in a really good spot at the moment.”
