He has been on the periphery of the first-team squad since his debut in 2018, but is yet to break down the barriers to become a regular in Roy Hodgson&#8217;s squad.<\/p>\n<p>Woods has made four appearances for Palace during his time at Selhurst Park, all of which have come in domestic cup competitions. After making his debut in 2018 against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2021\/01\/29\/middlesbrough-secure-deal-for-defender-darnell-fisher\/\" target=\"_self\">Middlesbrough<\/a> as a substitute, Woods&#8217; first start came against Colchester United in August 2019 in the League Cup.<\/p>\n<p>After that first start, Woods signed a new two-year deal in October 2019. As a result, the move to Home Park will offer the 22-year-old the chance to earn a new contract with the Premier League side, or equally earn himself a move away.<\/p>\n<p>This is his second move away from Selhurst Park &#8211; he made three appearances for Hamilton Academical last season in the Scottish Premiership, scoring his first senior goal.<\/p>\n<h3>What Was Said?<\/h3>\n<p>Speaking about his new signing to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pafc.co.uk\/news\/2021\/january\/sam-woods-joins-on-loan\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">official Plymouth Argyle website<\/a>, manager Ryan Lowe said: \u201cSam comes highly recommended to us, he\u2019s got experience in the SPL from last season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He\u2019s well thought of at Crystal Palace and has been involved with their first-team and made a number of senior appearances, as well as captaining their under-23 side.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cScott Dann [Crystal Palace centre-back], who I know quite well, gave us a great reference on Sam, he could not speak highly enough of him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sam is excited by the opportunity of joining Argyle, he provides quality and competition for places, and I feel he is a very good addition to the group.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<br \/>\n<a id=\"MznhJMwDQ9ZDu5CvdwV6Sg\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1272678281\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'MznhJMwDQ9ZDu5CvdwV6Sg',sig:'7ELH6QqMkZiGwtbka2zd6lXsgN08VRslmzUYSSE_5ms=',w:'594px',h:'432px',items:'1272678281',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plymouth Argyle have confirmed that they have signed Sam Woods on loan from Crystal Palace until the end of the season.
