“The fascinating story of Alfie Wightman…”, — write: sport.ua
Whiteman, 27, won a medal for the win against Manchester United, but has long been the club’s number four. Realizing that there are almost no chances to play, he decided to focus on other hobbies – acting, radio and photography.
A member of the Spurs academy since the age of 10, Whiteman left the club as a free agent with just one start under Jose Mourinho. Despite offers from Championship clubs, he hung up his gloves.

He subsequently signed a contract as a photographer with the production company Somesuch, which created the Oscar-winning short film The Long Goodbye. “I realized that I was unhappy in the football bubble.” I wanted to create and be close to people who create something new,” he said.
His new career was launched by a short video shot for the Vibram brand, which received excellent reviews. Whiteman now works in the field of film and photography and dreams of being at the World Cup – behind the camera, not on the field.
