HOLLYWOOD club Wrexham want to outbid Italian side Parma in the chase for Jordan James.

French side Rennes will sell the Wales midfield star to the highest bidder.

And Phil Parkinson’s men may pay more than the Serie A outfit, who won the Uefa Cup in 1995 and 1999.

Championship rivals Ipswich are also keen on 21-year-old James.

But Wrexham — owned by superstar acting duo Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney — are in the mood to see off all bidders.

James joined Rennes for £4million from Birmingham last summer.

He penned a four-year deal with the French club.

The new Championship outfit have been busy in the market this summer.
