The Welsh club, made famous by co-owners Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds and their "Welcome to Wrexham" docuseries, have been promoted in three consecutive seasons.
Announcing his departure in a post on Instagram, the 38-year-old former Scotland international who has had spells at Burnley, Sunderland and Marseille described Wrexham as "the most magical club I have ever played at."
"It's with a heavy heart, and not by choice, that I unfortunately have to announce my departure from what I can only describe as the most magical club I have ever played at!"
