Wrexham youngster Alex Moore has rejoined Colwyn Bay on loan for the 2026-27 season. The 20-year-old midfielder returns to the Cymru Premier side on a temporary deal that runs until January, as reported by the BBC.
Moore is now eligible to make his second debut for the Bay in their upcoming league fixture against Penybont this Saturday at The Blue Turtle Arena, with kick-off set for 12:30 BST. This marks his second loan spell with the club, following a successful stint in the second half of the 2025-26 campaign where he made 12 appearances.
What does Alex Moore bring to Colwyn Bay?
Alex Moore arrives with valuable first-team experience from his previous loan and has also featured for Wrexham in high-profile pre-season friendlies against the likes of Wisla Krakow and Manchester United. His return provides manager Mike Wilde with a familiar option in midfield as the team prepares for the new season. Colwyn Bay finished the 2025 campaign in a respectable 5th place in the Cymru Premier, securing 45 points from 32 games with a record of 12 wins, 9 draws, and 11 losses. Their recent form at the end of that season was LDLDW. You can see how the squad is shaping up on our squad page.
The club scored 41 goals last season while conceding 37, giving them a positive goal difference of +4. They ended the campaign 35 points behind the champions, The New Saints. Moore's creativity and energy could be important in helping the team improve on that attacking output.
How does this loan fit into Wrexham's plans?
Wrexham have sanctioned the move to give Moore regular competitive minutes at a good level. The parent club issued a statement wishing the player well. "All at Wrexham AFC would like to wish Moore and the Bay the best of luck," the statement said. This loan represents a clear pathway for Moore's development, allowing him to build on the experience he gained last year in the same environment and under the same management.
What is next for Colwyn Bay?
The immediate focus is on Saturday's home match against Penybont. Following that, the Bay's next scheduled fixture is a home encounter against Cambrian & Clydach on October 30th. Fans can track the full schedule on our fixtures page. The return of a known quantity like Moore provides a timely boost as the team looks to start the new season strongly. The current league standings from the concluded 2025 season show the competitive landscape Moore is re-entering.
Manager Mike Wilde will be hoping Moore can quickly settle back into the side and contribute from the outset. The loan deal is set to be reviewed in January, giving both clubs flexibility for the second half of the season.
