According to the Daily Mail, Mullin has been frozen out at the Racecourse Ground.
The report further claims the striker clashed with manager Phil Parkinson in January and he hasn't kicked a ball since.
Rumour has it the frustrated forward even phoned Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney to vent his fury over being benched.
And things have gone from bad to worse after the January arrivals of Sam Smith and Jay Rodriguez saw Mullin slip further down the pecking order.
Now the club have landed Ryan Hardie from Plymouth which effectively slams the door shut on Mullin's hopes of a comeback.
Despite Mullin playing down talk of a rift, his days at Wrexham look numbered.
Wigan have been circling for months and are finally pushing to seal a loan swoop.
Mullin, who is on £5.8k a week and hastwo years left on his deal, could now be on the move as tensions boil over behind the scenes at Wrexham.

But so far, there's been little to suggest Vardy will be heading to the Racecourse Ground, with interest in him also coming from the MLS.

Meghan will see sex assault claims against best pal Tyler Perry as SO toxic – watch her drop him, experts slam
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MEGHAN Markle will cut off her friend Tyler Perry over his sexual assault allegations, experts claim. Perry previously let Harry and Meghan stay at his $18 million Beverly Hills mansion after they quit royal life. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Tyler Perry was accused of sexual assault and harassment by a fellow actor Credit: Getty 3 In 2020, Perry let Harry and Meghan stay at his $18 million LA mansion Credit: Google Earth 3 Experts believe Meghan will cut Perry off to protect her image Credit: Getty He is also godfather to the couple's daughter Lilibet - which royal expert Hugo Vickers believes reflects a strong friendship. Earlier this week Tyler Perry was sued for sexual assault and harassment by fellow actor Derek Dixon, which Perry's team has denied as "a scam". Now, royal experts believe Meghan will turn her back on her former friend amidst a sexual assault claim. Speaking on The Sun's Royal show, expert Samara Gill has suggested that the allegations against Perry could damage the Sussexes' brand. Samara said: "There's nothing very Christian about a sexual assault claim and I think it's just one other damaging thing to add to their now-war chest of things that have been a problem for them." She added: "I think it shows the type of people that Meghan likes to surround herself with and I think it is damaging to their brand yet again because he was meant to be their closest friend." Samara also pointed out that the couple had made the most of Perry's wealth - including his home, and his plane - when they left the royal family in 2020. Now though, she thinks the couple will be keen to distance themselves from the alleged abuser. She added: "Just watch how quickly they go." Samara criticised the couple's hypocrisy, as they cut off toxicity "even though they're the ones who are really toxic." It's part of a pattern of behaviour that Samara said reflects their eagerness to use people before throwing them aside. Meghan's kids will be SO angry when they grow up & realise how they were used by her Perry previously let the couple stay in his $18 million LA home after they left the UK in 2020. At the time, he spoke on Today with Hoda and Jenna about his decision to let them stay at the lavish property. Perry said: "It was a very difficult time for them. What I know about the two of them, and I wish the world knew, how much these two people love each other." More recently, Tyler appeared in the Meghan's new Netflix show. Earlier this week Tyler Perry was sued for sexual assault and harassment by fellow actor Derek Dixon. The lawsuit claims $260 million in damages for harassment that occurred over several years. Dixon alleges that Perry repeatedly sent sexually suggestive texts, despite Dixon making it clear he wasn't interested. This later progressed to Perry groping Dixon in July 2021, the lawsuit alleges. Finally, Dixon filed a complaint with the Equal Employment and Opportunity Commission in June 2024, before leaving his role in The Oval. Matthew Boyd, an attorney for Perry, gave the following statement to PEOPLE. He said: "This is an individual who got close to Tyler Perry for what now appears to be nothing more than setting up a scam. "But Tyler will not be shaken down and we are confident these fabricated claims of harassment will fail."
