Hayden White: Mansfield Town sign Peterborough right-back on loan

Hayden White previously had loans spells at Carlisle, Bury, Notts County and Blackpool while on the books at Bolton between 2013 and 2016

Mansfield Town have signed Peterborough United right-back Hayden White on loan until the end of the season, with a view to a possible permanent deal.

The 21-year-old former Bolton Wanderers man will be eligible for the Stags' trip to Notts County on Saturday.

A former Sheffield Wednesday trainee, he has played nine times in all competitions for Posh this term.

"I have been looking at a number of right-backs and kept coming back to his name," said Mansfield boss Steve Evans.

"I had a conversation with (Peterborough's director of football) Barry Fry and (chairman) Darragh MacAnthony and the option was for Mansfield to take the boy on loan with a view to doing something more permanent."
