Ipswich had no intention to sell Broadhead, 27, this summer but have not ruled out a sale for a good price.

And he was left out of their squad for their friendly against Charlton on Tuesday night. 

Wrexham’s previous club record purchase was £2m on striker Sam Smith from Reading earlier this year.

But Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are ready to splash the cash following promotion to the Championship.

Broadhead has 23 goals and 12 assists in 83 appearances for Town since joining from Everton for £1.5m two years ago.

The Red Dragons’ desire for a striker has been no secret this season.

And they are also interested in signing Kieffer Moore, who one supporter has labelled a “cheat code”.

TheWales international is believed to be available for around £4million from Sheffield United.

Manager Phil Parkinson confirmed he was on the club’s shortlist.

He said: “Kieffer’s under contract at Sheffield United. He’s one of a number of players we’ve looked at over the summer,” Parkinson said.

“Like I said, the landscape changes in the transfer market very quickly from one week to the next.

“We’re looking at lots of options here and abroad.”

Wrexham have signed goalkeeper Danny Ward, forwards Josh Windass and Ryan Hardie, defender Liberato Cacace, midfielders George Thomason and Lewis O’Brien this summer.
