Travis and Jason Kelce have hinted that they could head on a road trip to Wrexham after being offered a tour by the soccer club’s co-owner Rob McElhenney.

 

Jason was left red faced this week after discussing Travis’ new teammate Louis Rees-Zammit on their podcast New Heights.

The former rugby star has joined the Chiefs and Jason revealed what a ‘stereotypical’ Welshman is like in his mind.

‘When I think of Welsh, I think British people call it “posh” – I think of these rich, upper class, just beautiful white people. He is the running stereotype of what I would think of with a Welsh person,’ Jason said.

‘I’ve come to understand, I was very incorrect on this,’ the elder Kelce said. ‘I’m not sure why I had these preconceptions in my mind, but I have found that the Welsh seem exactly like my kind of people. Happy to be incredibly wrong.’

That admission prompted TV star McElhenney to offer the brothers a true taste of Welsh life.

Since taking over at Wrexham, McElhenney and fellow Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds have turned the north Wales club into one of the biggest stories in British football.

The actor responded to Kelce’s comments on social media, writing: ‘Yes, incredibly wrong. I should show you around someday. I might know a few people. See for yourself.’

The brothers seem open to the idea. Shortly after, the official New Heights account on X wrote: ‘Outta the House: Wrexham Edition?’ Outta the House is a common segment on the show.

Travis Kelce spoke of his respect for Rees-Zammit for changing careers at age 23

The two brothers also discussed soccer on this week’s podcast, with Jason insisting that watching Lionel Messi play for Inter Miami is not the same as seeing him in Europe or with the Argentina national team.

Messi lit up Arrowhead Stadium in Inter Miami’s win over Sporting Kansas City over the weekend but Jason said: ‘It’s not the same being in the MLS… I’m not sh****ng on the MLS.

He added: ‘I’m saying it’s not international soccer. When you think of soccer, I know there’s all these wonderful clubs overseas, there’s the MLS, I think of the World Cup, that’s all I’m saying. It’s international play and then everything else.’

‘You see one person on the biggest stage possible, with the biggest team in history,’ he explained. ‘This is the best soccer player at the World Cup. That’s different than seeing Lionel Messi tearing it up in Kansas City, just saying.’

While his older brother raved about international competitions, three-time Super Bowl champion Travis insisted ‘it’s all about the Premier League.’ Wrexham, meanwhile, was recently promoted to Le
