Morgan Whittaker’s first full season for Plymouth Argyle has been nothing short of a success. Whittaker was the bright spark in an Argyle team full of young talents attempting to secure survival in the club's first Championship season since 2010. Whilst the Green Army only managed to narrowly avoid relegation, Morgan Whittaker’s impact simply cannot be denied. The 23-year-old’s talent was on full display in a struggling side, just imagine what he could do in one of the League’s leading teams. 

Whittaker originally pulled on the green shirt of Argyle in the 22/23 season, being loaned out to the then League One outfit in a campaign that saw them win the league under Steven Schumacher. The Englishman notched nine goals and seven assists in 25 League One games but couldn’t stick around to see his side win the league.

Parent club Swansea City saw the talent and recalled him to give him his first taste of consistent Championship football. Whittaker scored one goal for Swansea in 15 Championship appearances, signing off a successful season and his Swansea career.
