Controversial Irish star James McClean has saluted Wrexham fans singing an anti-King chant, weeks after Prince William visited the club.
At the start of March, Prince William visited the pitch at Wrexham's Racecourse Ground to hear accounts of the club's rise since the 2021 takeover by Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds, and meet staff and players.
Following their 6-0 thrashing of Forest Green Rovers at the weekend, the Welsh club's promotion to League One was confirmed, and fans celebrated with songs about all their players, including McClean.
In a clip posted on social media, Wrexham fans can be clearly heard singing 'he hates the f****** King', in reference to the Irishman's well-publicised Republican stance.
Prince William, the president of the FA, received a personalised shirt from McElhenney and players Luke Young and Ben Tozer on the pitch at the Racecourse Ground, as well as conversing with manager Phil Parkinson.
