The 18-year-old attacking midfielder arrives at the Towbar Express Stadium as an exciting young prospect from the Black Cats’ academy, where he has been developing within their Under-18 and Under-21 set-up.

Primarily operating as an attacking midfielder, Dinsdale is also capable of playing across the front line, offering versatility in advanced areas.

Dinsdale has featured regularly at youth level this season, gaining valuable experience across multiple competitions and contributing with goals and assists from midfield. His technical ability, eye for goal, and creativity in the final third make him a promising addition to the Seasiders’ squad for the run-in.

The move provides Dinsdale with an opportunity to experience senior football, while strengthening Whitby Town’s attacking options as the club enters the final month of its campaign.

Everyone at Whitby Town would like to welcome Charlie to the club and wish him every success during his time on the North Yorkshire coast.
