He replaces Brian Little, who left the club last week after their poor start to the Blue Square Conference campaign.

Wrexham were relegated from Coca-Cola League Two last season and are only in mid-table in their first experience of non-league football.

Saunders, who also played for Aston Villa, Swansea and Liverpool in a glittering club career, will be allowed to continue in his role as John Toshack's first-team coach to the senior Wales side.

He has previously had coaching roles at Blackburn and Newcastle, but this is his first job as manager.
