Paps returns to Crawley

Paps began his second stint with the Stones last September and went on to make 22 appearances – 17 starts and five from the bench. He scored twice during his time with the club, netting against Slough Town and Bath City.

Stones boss George Elokobi said: “We thank Paps for everything he did for Maidstone United Football Club during his time with us and wish him well for the remainder of the season.

“He is someone we will keep an eye on and, depending on what happens at his parent club, we will keep the door open for future conversations.”
