Danny Whitaker Biography

Danny Whitaker is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on November 14, 1980 in Wilmslow, England, United Kingdom.

A former Manchester United Academy player, he turned professional with Macclesfield Town in 2001. He spent five years with the club, and made over 200 appearances in all competitions, before he switched to Port Vale in June

2006. He played over 100 games for the Vale in two seasons, before he signed for Oldham Athletic in June 2008. Again a first team regular, he left after two seasons to join Chesterfield in May 2010. He helped the club to the League Two title in 2010–11, and also won himself a place on the division’s PFA Team of the Year. He also helped the club to the League Trophy title in 2012. He returned to Macclesfield Town in August 2013, and played in the club’s defeat at the 2017 FA Trophy Final, before helping the club to win promotion back to the English Football League as champions of the National League. He was appointed as the club’s caretaker-manager in November 2018, before announcing his retirement in July 2019. He again stepped up to become caretaker-manager at Macclesfield in August 2019 and January 2020.

A regular in the 2002–03 season, he scored a hat-trick in the League Cup 4–1 triumph over Barnsley on 11 September. In most unusual fashion all three goals came in the second period of extra time. With ten goals before the winter break he was linked to both Oldham Athletic and Preston North End. However manager David Moss was highly dismissive of such speculation, saying: “Quite frankly, I am sick and tired of reading about players who have just signed two-year contracts but want to get away. Danny Whitaker will be going nowhere except Macclesfield reserves if he doesn’t improve.” The club insisted that Whitaker was too valuable a player to let go. This transfer talk came despite him having recently signed a contract to keep him with the “Silkmen” until June 2005.
