Career

Doncaster Rovers

After coming through Doncaster Rovers's youth system, he signed his first professional contract in May 2014.[3] He made his official debut on 7 October 2014 in a 3–0 away victory over Burton Albion in the Football League Trophy, coming on as a 90th-minute substitute.[4][5]

During the start of the 2015–16 season, manager Paul Dickov tried integrating Whitehouse into the team. Whitehouse made his last appearance facing the team he made his début against, Burton Albion, in a game in which Whitehouse picked up the man of the match award and played his first full 90 minutes. Since the sacking of Paul Dickov, Whitehouse failed to make a single appearance under new manager Darren Ferguson for the remainder of the season. After a well deserved draw with Burton Albion, that saw the Brewers promoted to Football League Championship for the first time in their history, Doncaster were relegated to play in League Two for the first time since 2004. It was announced on the 17 May 2016, that Whitehouse had been made available on the transfer list, along with 4 other players; Thorsten Stuckmann, Dany N'Guessan, Gary MacKenzie and Curtis Main.

F.C. Halifax Town (loan)

It was announced on 13 February 2016 that Whitehouse would be joining FC Halifax Town, on an initial one-month loan. Whitehouse went on to make his debut that same weekend against opposition Grimsby Town, also scoring within 10 minutes of his debut in a game that ended 4–2 to the FC Halifax Town. Whitehouse went on to make a further 3 appearances for Halifax. After the expiry of his loan in March 2016, he returned to his parent club.

Leeds United

On 2 August 2016, Whitehouse joined Leeds United for an undisclosed fee from Doncaster Rovers, becoming their 8th signing of the summer. He would initially join the Development squad.[6]
