Wheatley arrived on loan from Manchester United and made his debut from the bench in the 3-0 defeat at Bradford City on January 25. 

The 19-year-old was then handed a pair of starts in the 2-0 defeat at Fleetwood Town and 2-2 draw against Salford City at Bescot but has not been involved in the squad since. 

Meanwhile, Chang and Lipsiuc signed on loan from Birmingham City and Stoke City respectively on transfer deadline day but neither have been named in a match day squad as of yet.
