Jada Leanne Mathyssen-Whyman (born 24 October 1999) is an Australian soccer player who plays as a goalkeeper for AIK in the Damallsvenskan, the Swedish first division.

Early life

Whyman is of Indigenous Australian heritage, with ancestry from the Wiradjuri and Yorta Yorta peoples.[2] Whyman grew up in Wagga Wagga before moving to Canberra and later Sydney, where she attended Westfields Sports High School.[3] She travelled from Wagga Wagga to both Sydney and Canberra regularly until late 2013 when she moved to the Australian Capital Territory.[4]

Club career

Whyman's first club in Sydney was Macarthur Rams, joining the club in 2013 whilst still living in Wagga Wagga.[5]

In August 2015, Whyman signed to play for Western Sydney Wanderers in the 2015–16 W-League,[6] and made seven appearances in her debut season.[7] She suffered a torn thigh in a game against Newcastle Jets, causing her to miss much of the season.[8]

In August 2024, Whyman left Sydney FC at the end of her contract and joined Swedish club AIK until the end of the 2025 season.[9][10]

International career

Whyman was first called up to the Australian under-17 team in 2013 for the 2013 AFC U-16 Women's Championship, aged thirteen.[11]

She made her debut for Australia under-20 in a 2–0 win over Uzbekistan in the group stage of the 2015 AFC U-19 Women's Championship.[12]

She was subsequently selected in a squad for the Senior national team who would be playing two friendlies against France and England in October 2018.[13]
