He has said: “I’m excited, it’s a big club and I’m pleased to be here.

“Phil Parkinson was a massive part of me coming here. He spoke to me and sold the club to me. Obviously I’ve always known about Wrexham, it’s a massive Club and one that shouldn’t be down at this level.

“I have ambitions of my own to get back up into the Football League, and hopefully I can do that with Wrexham.”

Lennon rose up through the youth ranks at Charlton and was on the books there when Parkinson was at the helm from 2008 to 2011.

The 6ft 3inc defender burst into the Addicks’ first-team and went on to make 40 appearances.

He also had loan spells away from the Valley at Cambridge United and Gillingham to get some experience under his belt.
