Callum Whelan

Career
Whelan came through the ranks at Manchester Utd and stayed there till the 18/19 season when he was sold to Watford after not playing a game. In the 19/20 season he played 3 times, scoring 1 and assisted 1 but was released at the end of the year. Gateshead saw him on the free agent list and brought him in to fight with loanee midfielders; Grayson and Bakinson. In the 21/22 season there was an influx of midfielder options, he played 6 times before being loaned out to Boston Utd till the end of that season where he was their key player, getting 5 goals and 4 assists in 32 games from central midfield. Once he returned he became quite a regular in the squad, making 37 appearances and providing 2 assists from deep in midfield. He (like Greenfield) fell down the pecking order in the 23/24 season due to new signings. He played a total of 25 games and scored one goal. The 24/25 saw him play even less than the season before, this was due to him being sold in the January stransfer window. He played 23 times and gained 1 assist. After more midfielders were brought in, Ireland placed him on the transfer list. Scottish 4th tier team, Brechin City came in with an impressive £70,000 bid which was quickly accepted and he joined them for the start of the 24/25 season after him playing 23 times and gained 1 assist. He was an instant hit with the Scottish side and he became a key player for them.
