The long-serving stopper, 24, has clocked up more than 100 league appearances for the Bucks since his debut in August 2017.

White, who can play in a couple of positions along the backline, becomes the second Telford player to commit to Gavin Cowan's side for next season.

He follows club captain and midfielder Adam Walker in agreeing fresh terms.

It is understood the futures of more Telford players have been finalised and will be confirmed in the coming week.

White has signed a one-year deal at the New Bucks Head ahead of the 2021/22 National League North season.

The Welshman joined Telford after a short spell with league rivals Southport, who he joined after leaving first club Wrexham, where he came through the youth ranks.

He was on the periphery last season, which was curtailed early due to the pandemic. White started just six of Telford's 17 league games but was a regular in Cowan's matchday squads.

White is the second longest-serving player on the Bucks' books, following defender Zak Lilly.
