Experienced defender Ben Tozer signed for Wrexham in August 2021 for an undisclosed fee from Cheltenham.
Tozer started his footballing journey at Swindon, which subsequently saw him earn a deserved move to Newcastle United.
Having learned his trade in the academy, the centre-back made his only two appearances for the club in the 2009/10 season.
He came on as a substitute against Doncaster in the Championship, before then making his first start against Peterborough in the Carling Cup.
After two loan spells at Northampton to further his development, Tozer left St James’ Park for a permanent deal at Sixfields.
He went on to play more than 100 times for the Cobblers in a side which reached the League Two play-offs.
Spells at Yeovil and Newport County followed, before Tozer joined Cheltenham and helped them secure promotion to Sky Bet League One as champions.
However, after getting promoted with The Robins, he decided to leave the Jonny Rocks Stadium for the STōK Cae Ras at the beginning of the 2021/22 season.
Tozer became a highly influential figure in the squad, which saw him named as Club Captain.
An ever-present in Phil Parkinson’s side, the 33-year-old played in all 46 league matches last season as Wrexham lifted the National League title and returned back to the EFL for the upcoming campaign.
