The Verdict

This could potentially turn out to be a good move for Whittaker as he may have struggled to compete for a place in Swansea's starting eleven if he decided to stay with the Wales outfit for the 2022/23 campaign.

Set to feature for Plymouth in the new term, the former Derby County man will be determined to deliver the goods on a consistent basis in the third-tier.

Having provided six direct goal contributions at this level last season, it may not take Whittaker too long to make a positive impression for his new side.

After narrowly missing out on a place in the play-offs earlier this year, Plymouth will be aiming to launch another push for a top-six finish in League One under the guidance of manager Steven Schumacher.
