Morgan Whittaker has stated that he did not refuse to play for Plymouth Argyle in their recent match against Burnley. Whittaker explained that an agreement had been reached with manager Steven Schumacher regarding his non-selection due to transfer interest from Burnley and Middlesbrough. He claimed to have trained separately from the main squad as per instructions. Whittaker addressed the criticism from manager Schumacher, stating that he has always been dedicated to the club and his performances. Argyle's manager, Steven Schumacher, has since commented that the club is happy for Whittaker and wishes him well. Whittaker expressed gratitude for his time at Plymouth, highlighting his contributions to the team's success, including promotion and a memorable FA Cup victory.
Morgan Whittaker says he did not refuse to play for Plymouth Argyle in their 5-0 loss to Burnley last week."It was agreed by myself and the manager that due to the bids on the table from both Burnley and Middlesbrough, I would not be up for selection.
After Argyle's 2-2 draw at Sunderland on Saturday - their first game since Whittaker's move - Muslic struck a more conciliatory tone over the affair. He returned for a club-record equalling £1m fee in the summer of 2023 and went on to score 20 goals in 50 appearances as he was named in the Championship team of the season.
"Some of the most magical and integral parts of my career have happened here with Plymouth which I will be forever grateful for.
