Career

edit

Wilson made his first team debut on his 18th birthday, 8 October 2019, coming on as a sub in an EFL Trophy match between Plymouth Argyle and Swindon Town. He replaced Antoni Sarcevic in the 78th minute.[5]

Wilson had been set to start the 2020–21 season with Plymouth Parkway in the Western League Premier Division. However, FA regulations prevent a professional from playing below step four of the National League System, and so he joined Dorchester on three-month loan.[6]

Wilson was released by the Pilgrims at the end of the 2020–21 season.[7]
