The 27-year-old, who recently helped Peterborough Sports to win the play-off final and promotion to the Vanarama National League South, replaces Saul Deeney and Tomasz Bukowski, who have both switched to new league rivals Ilkeston Town.

Irish-born White, who also helped Kettering Town to win the Southern Premier Central title in 2018/19, previously played for Cork City, North Leigh, Gloucester City, Frome Town, Forest Green Rovers and Boreham Wood.

The experienced former Republic of Ireland under-18 international joined the Poppies in September 2016 and soon established himself as the club’s number one with a string of fine performances that have made him a firm fans favourite.

He transferred to National League North rivals Hereford FC in the summer of 2020 and then signed for Southern Premier Division Central outfit St Ives Town in July 2021 before switching to league rivals Peterborough Sports in late November 2021.

Coalville manager Adam Stevens told his club’s website: “It was very important to get an experienced keeper in. Paul's won this league with Kettering and has always impressed me whenever we’ve faced him”.
