Charles George "Charlie" Wright (born 11 December 1938 in Glasgow, Scotland) is a Scottish-born Hong Kong former footballer and manager.

Wright was caretaker manager and then manager of Bolton Wanderers in the 1984-85 season. His first game as full-time manager was a 2–0 win against Plymouth Argyle. However the good times did not last long and Wright was quickly replaced by ex-Liverpool and England defender Phil Neal.
