Wrexham Museum is currently undergoing redevelopment for the addition of collections dedicated to Welsh association football. Proposals for a national football museum had been proposed by various politicians in both the Welsh Government and local councils. Wrexham County Borough Council emerged as the leading contender for the location of a museum due to Wrexham's football heritage. By 2026, the new museum dedicated to both Wrexham and Welsh football is set to open within the pre-existing County Buildings on Regent Street, in Wrexham's city centre, merging together with Wrexham County Borough Museum and Archives.
