Maidenhead United FC have signed Finnish international goalkeeper Jesse Joronen from Premier League side Fulham.
The under 21 international, who stands 6ft 4in tall, joined the Cottagers in 2010 and is very highly rated by the West Londoners.
He has arrived at York Road as cover for Billy Lumley who is suspended.
Magpies boss Johnson Hippolyte said: "We've got a good link with Fulham and when we spoke to them they said they had someone who could help us out.
"I've seen him play and he's a good keeper. He's big, commands his box well.
"They think very highly of him and with Billy being suspended, he ticks all the boxes for us."
Joronen has signed in time to play against Welling on Saturday.
