Kieffer Moore: Wales and Wrexham striker aims to graduate from World Cup to boardroom

Moore has not yet thought about where any post-playing job would be.

He jokes that had he started the directorship course – “two years and very demanding like any education” – sooner, he could have looked after his own contract talks this summer when he joined Wrexham.

Moore was among 13 summer signings, and while a fourth successive promotion may prove too much to ask, the club’s ambition is obvious.

“The sky is the limit. You only to look at what’s happened over the last few years, the stand they’re building and infrastructure being put in place,” he said.

“The club is definitely destined for the Premier League. When a club comes up from League One and spends £30m it shows the intent of what they want to achieve.”

Moore appears perfectly suited to Phil Parkinson’s team, as indicated by five goals in 10 appearances so far that have helped fill the void left by the departure of fan-favourite Paul Mullin, who has left for Wigan having previously been Wrexham’s key striker.

Moore’s encouraging start to life in north Wales has come while trying to ignore the documentary cameras following every day’s work at Wrexham, from training ground to dressing room.

“There’s a bit of added pressure with the attention the club gets, but I’ve always loved having that burden of responsibility and think it’s a massive honour,” he said.

“The people we’ve brought in are exceptional. It’s taking us a bit of time to hit our stride but when everything comes together, we’ll creep up that table.”
