A different answer from what you are asking.

You can run WhatsApp from your browser if you have the application installed on your mobile phone. You only need to scan a code from within the phone application. See screenshot.

Did not know this. Thank you much

There is also a Flatpak and Snap of it as well floating around out there. Not sure about AppImage.

If you were running Mint, there's a WhatsApp App in the repository which works just like Debian6toll, (post #2), mentions.

Play Bonny!

Try Ferdium. Works natively in Linux, no need Wine.

Works good. Couple of times it has stopped to work, but then installing new version and Whatsup is working again.
