Leicester City midfielder Callum Wright has joined Blackpool for an undisclosed fee.

The 22-year-old, who spent last season on loan at Cheltenham Town, made 37 appearances for the Robins in all competitions, scoring nine goals.

Wright said: "I'm buzzing to be here and excited to get started. I'm a player who likes to create, score goals, get stuck in and work hard. I just want to make an impact on the pitch. I've tested myself over the last few years at Cheltenham and the next step is the Championship. I just want to hit the ground running."

Blackpool boss Michael Appleton added: "Callum is a player that I've known for a while because Leicester took him in during the time I was there.

"He's had a fantastic loan at Cheltenham and shown great pedigree in various positions, scoring the goals and providing the assists he did last season. He's ready to be challenged and step up to the next level. I'm delighted that we're giving him the opportunity to do that."
