The 19-year-old agile and technical midfielder joins the Seasiders following a successful trial in Tuesday's friendly against Redcar, a fixture which saw him net Whitby's fourth in their 9-0 win.

Hailing from Guisborough, Alfie was part of the Boro Academy from the age of nine up until his release this summer.

Towards the latter part of his 10-year Middlesbrough career, Doherty spent brief spells out on loan with Hebburn Town and Marske United.
