Ciarán 'Whelo' Whelan (born 28 August 1976 in Dublin) is a former inter-county Irish Gaelic footballer for Dublin although he remains a club footballer with Raheny. He is right footed but can kick with both feet and usually plays in midfield. He was a member of the Dublin squad from 1996 to 2009. He was described as the best of the then Dublin team not not to have won an All-Ireland, and possibly one of the best high-fielders in the country.
