“Charlie has been incredibly unlucky with injuries and illness since not long after joining us,” Director of Football, Phil Giles said.
“That said, whenever he played, I always thought he did very well and contributed to some important results, especially during our first season in the Premier League.

The 28-year-old departs the Gtech Community Stadium having made 20 appearances in August 2020 for £1m from Northampton Town. He helped the club since promotion via the play-offs in 2021 and played six times in the Premier League, before having loan spells at both Sheffield United and Blackpool.
During his time at Bloomfield Road he made three appearances, and suffered a hamstring injury that ruled him out for the remainder of his loan spell. The Seasiders were relegated to League One at the end of campaign.
