A shoe-string budget has normally led to loan moves and free transfers making up the bulk of the recruitment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/01\/02\/ben-waine-plymouth-argyle-signing\/\" target=\"_self\">Ben Waine<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/01\/03\/saxon-earley-joins-plymouth-argyle\/\" target=\"_self\">Saxon Earley<\/a> already came through the door for undisclosed fees and a third has been announced. Callum Wright has made the move to Devon following a very brief stint with Blackpool in the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/07\/30\/top-championship-transfers-this-summer\/\" target=\"_self\">Championship<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Wright\u2019s career has been fascinating to date, with his senior career beginning at the King Power Stadium after playing for a number of youth teams. His breakthrough at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/31\/schalke-winger-amine-harit-leicester-city-loan\/\" target=\"_self\">Leicester City<\/a> never amounted to any professional appearances and so he went in search of more regular football.<\/p>\n<p>The 22-year-old enjoyed two separate loan spells with League Two outfit Cheltenham Town, in which he found himself as a footballer. A permanent move to Bloomfield Road ensued, the home of <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2021\/06\/03\/blackpool-in-the-championship\/\" target=\"_self\">Blackpool<\/a>, back in the September of last year. Just ten appearances in the second-tier later, Wright is now a Plymouth Argyle player.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/01\/04\/morgan-whittaker-swansea-city-loan-recall\/\" target=\"_self\">Swansea City Recall Morgan Whittaker From His Plymouth Argyle Loan Spell<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Where Does Callum Wright Fit Into Schumacher\u2019s Plans?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Callum Wright made his final league appearance for the Tangerines when he entered the fray against Sunderland on New Year\u2019s Day, with just minutes remaining. He hasn\u2019t played a whole lot recently &#8211; October was his most prolific month as he played three full 90 minutes in a row.<\/p>\n<p>In these appearances, Michael Appleton primarily deployed him in the middle of the park, with an ability for him to go both forwards and backwards. Depth is most needed in the Plymouth Argyle squad in a more reserved role &#8211; injuries have piled up the pressure on Jordan Houghton and Adam Randell to stay fit and deliver. Elsewhere on the field, the loss of <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/01\/04\/morgan-whittaker-swansea-city-loan-recall\/\" target=\"_self\">Morgan Whittaker<\/a> is a major blow.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Absolutely delighted to have signed for Argyle, cannot wait to get started!
