(England), Dundalk (Ireland) as well as National Soccer League clubs Blacktown City Demons, West Adelaide and Morwell Falcons.
Wright was perhaps best known for his three separate stints with the Morwell Falcons - first joining the club in 1989, where he played a pivotal role in a dynamic partnership with Croatian striker Darko Basara.
He would come back to the Latrobe Valley in 1996 for a final two-year spell, although by then he was in his mid-30s and spent much of his time mentoring future Socceroos international Archie Thompson.
Wright made his full debut for New Zealand in a 2–0 win over Saudi Arabia on 21 June 1988[2] and ended his international playing career having played 26 times for the All Whites, including 15 A-internationals in which he scored 9 goals,[3][4] his final official cap being in a 1–0 loss to Australia on 30 May 1993.
Wright has since moved to coaching where he has found his calling combining his talent and love of the game with his tough play style.
