The 22-year-old was a summer signing for the Brewers after leaving Premier League side Southampton on the expiration of his contract.

 

O'Connor had joined Southampton's academy as a trainee in 2015, spending two loan spells at League One side Gillingham in recent years before moving to the Pirelli Stadium last summer.

 

The Republic of Ireland under-21 international made 21 appearances for the Brewers in his time at the Pirelli Stadium, scoring 5 goals.

 

Irishman O’Connor, 22, who has been capped by his country at under-19 and under-21 level, has signed a contract until June 2025.

 

Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson told https://www.wrexhamafc.co.uk: “I’m very pleased. I feel Tom’s a strong signing for us.

 

“It’s taken a bit of work, but we’re pleased to have completed it.

 

“Midfield is one area where we were light on numbers, and Tom offers us versatility with being able to play left-sided defence too.

 

“He’s young, he’s a player who’s only going to get better and it’s an excellent acquisition for us”.
