Club Career

Born in Zaragoza, Aragon from an English father and a Mexican mother, Whalley spent his first season as a senior with Real Zaragoza's reserves in Tercera Division. On 31 May 2014, as first choice Leo Franco declared his desire to leave the country and understudy Pablo Alcolea was injured, he played his first match as a professional, starting in a 1–1 home draw against Sporting de Gijon for the Segunda Division.

The following campaign, Whalley played 19 games as Zaragoza came sixth, and a further one on 11 June 2015 as they lost their play-off semi-final first leg 0–3 at home to Girona FC. He was subsequently dropped for Bono for the rest of the tournament, as the team won the tie on away goals and lost the final by the same rule to UD Las Palmas.

On 10 July 2015, Whalley was loaned to neighbouring SD Huesca also in the second tier.
