Paul Mullin is set to leave Wrexham to join Wigan Athletic, talkSPORT understands.
The club legend is in talks with Wigan ahead of a season-long loan move to remain in League One next season.
Mullin, who in four years at Wrexham has played a major part in their rise, will not fulfil his dream of playing in the Championship.
The striker has never played in the second tier, and despite his side reaching that level for the first time, he will play no part.

Manager Ryan Lowe will be hoping to bring in some more firepower after his side ended the campaign as the lowest scorers.
They only netted 40 goals across the entire third-tier season.
