Alfie Whiteman – our former Academy graduate who spent 16 years at the club – will, aptly, launch his debut art exhibition and accompanying photo book at the stadium’s OOF Gallery from 1 May.
Alfie’s is an incredible story – born and raised in Tottenham, the goalkeeper was a mascot at the Lane aged just six, joined the Academy at 10 and eventually made his senior debut at 22 in the Europa League in 2020.
Capped at England youth level, Alfie recovered from a broken ankle to be part of our Europa League squad in 2024/25. On the bench in the latter stages of the league phase and knockout rounds, Alfie was part of the matchday squad for our final triumph in Bilbao last May. He announced his retirement in October.
Now to the next phase of his life and a new direction...
Always interested in the arts, Alfie's first exhibition of photographs and accompanying book - Alfie Whiteman: ‘A Loan’ – will be housed at the OOF Gallery, part of the Tottenham Experience at the stadium, from 1 May-27 September.
'A Loan’ is a project which captures life on loan during Alfie’s time in Sweden at Degerfors, where he made 34 appearances across his 18-month spell in the Allsvenskan from August, 2021. It features a wide selection of photographs from the project, as well as a full-size replica of the lakeside sauna where he spent so much of his time.
The exhibition, supported by Salomon, is accompanied by a beautifully illustrated photobook, filled with images and diary entries from his time in Sweden. The book is published by OOF and Somesuch Editions.
