Ben Whitfield Biography

Benjamin Michael Whitfield (born 28 February, 1996) was an English professional footballer with National League club Torquay United. Whitfield can be seen in the midfield position as an attacking midfielder or as an wingsman.

On the 12th of October, 2015. Whitfield became a member of National League club Kidderminster Harriers on an initial one-month loan. Whitfield was signed by the football department head Colin Gordon shortly before the introduction of the new coach Dave Hockaday. Whitfield quickly impressed at Aggborough and was able to make a goal scoring debut the next morning for Kidderminster in a draw against Altrincham. The loan contract was extended to the beginning of the new year and Whitfield expressed his gratitude for the love that he received from Harriers supporters. On February 15 the loan contract was extended until the conclusion in the current season. Whitfield also signed a new one-year deal with Bournemouth. Whitfield scored six goals over the course of 31 games during his loan spell with Kidderminster and, although they did not stay out of relegation at the conclusion of the 2015-16 campaign His performances helped him earn the player of the year award from the club as well as the The Supporters’ Player of Year award.

On 4 August 2017, Whitfield joined League Two side Port Vale on loan until January 2018. He maintained a first-team place under Michael Brown’s stewardship, and held on to his place under new manager Neil Aspin, and his well taken volley secured Aspin his first win as “Valiants” manager in a 3–1 victory over Cheltenham Town at Vale Park on 14 October; the goal was later shortlisted for the League Two goal of the month award. However he injured his ankle seven days later in a 1–0 win at Exeter City and was ruled out of action for five weeks. Despite interest from other clubs, his loan at Port Vale was extended until the end of the 2017–18 season after the club’s initial transfer offer of around £35,000 was not completed. However, by his own admission he was unable to live up to the high standards he set in December, describing his form as “inconsistent” in the second half of the campaign. On 30 March, he scored the winning goal in a crucial 2–1 home victory over Chesterfield. He was offered a new contract by Bournemouth in May 2018.

On 30 August 2018, Whitfield signed a two-year contract with Port Vale. Aspin said that the deal to sign Whitfield in January had fallen through due to the player’s agent, adding that: “He’s changed his agent now and in football and in life you’ve got to give people another chance.” He was in and out of the first-team as he struggled for consistency under both Aspin and new manager John Askey, and ended the 2018–19 season on the transfer-list after he scored four goals in 33 appearances. In July 2019 he went on trial at Cheltenham Town. His contract with Port Vale was terminated by mutual consent on 3 September. The player’s agent, Dan Fletcher, took to Twitter to say that “Sometimes you have to do everything you can to get a player away from a manager, even if that means taking a step back to go several steps forward”.

On January 1, 2014, Whitfield joined Championship club AFC Bournemouth on an 18-month contract. Being associated with a variety of Premier League and English Football League clubs, Whitfield stated that manager Eddie Howe “was a big part of why I decided to come down here because of the way he coaches and his teams play”.
