Walsall have completed the signing of former Mansfield Town defender Hayden White, who becomes the Saddlers' fifth signing of the summer.
25-year-old Greenwich-born White, is a product of the Sheffield Wednesday youth system but began his professional career with Bolton Wanderers, making a total of five appearances over three seasons.
His time at Bolton wasn't all development football however as Hayden enjoyed loan spells with Carlisle United, Bury, Notts County and Blackpool before leaving the North West on a permanent basis in 2016.
After penning a two-year deal with Peterborough United, Hayden eventually went back out on loan as he joined Mansfield Town in January 2017, a move which would become permanent later that summer.
Making a total of seventy-five first-team appearances, Hayden was released by the Stags at the end of last season and has become the Saddlers' latest signing as they prepare for the 2020/21 campaign.
