Club career

Wright was born in Norris Green, Liverpool. He joined Everton as an apprentice, and made his first team debut in 1964.[1] He was part of the winning team in the 1966 FA Cup Final, in the unsuccessful team in the 1968 FA Cup Final and played all 42 league games in the 1969–70 season when Everton won the Football League Championship by nine points.[2] He also won the 1970 FA Charity Shield.[3] He made 437 appearances in total and scored four goals.[4]

Wright has often been described as the best right-back to play for Everton.[citation needed] George Best once described Wright as his most difficult opponent.[citation needed]

International career

Wright made twelve appearances for England including the classic match against Brazil in the 1970 World Cup in Mexico.[5] Wright made his debut for England in the game in which England beat the Soviet Union in the third place match in the 1968 European Football Championship in Italy, the only player to make his England debut in a European Championship finals match.[citation needed]

Retirement

Wright retired in 1974 due to injury.[2] His contributions to Everton were noted in the years following his retirement. He was named as an inaugural member of Gwladys Street's Hall of Fame in 1996, and as an "Everton Giant" in 2016.[1]
