Wrexham AFC is situated alongside the ‘Rest of the World’ teams in FIFA 23 because of Wrexham AFC’s stature within the English football ecosystem. Wrexham is currently in the National League, the fifth-highest tier of football in the United Kingdom.

The four other English leagues: the Premier League, EFL Championship, EFL League One, and EFL League Two, are all featured in FIFA 23. The National League is not, thus pushing Wrexham FC to the miscellaneous teams section. Wrexham FC isn’t alone there, however. Multiple teams, including the fictional AFC Richmond, can also be found here.
