Hide AdWhitley enjoyed a promising loan spell with Boro's east coast rivals Whitby Town a couple of years ago and Kelly is delighted to have brought him into the Flamingo Land Stadium.
"Ryan is a hugely promising young goalkeeper who I know very well as myself and Michael Ingham brought him into the York City academy a number of years ago," said Kelly.
"He is a very good young goalkeeper who will strengthen us a great deal.
"Goalkeeper is a hugely important position for any side and I always like to build a strong side from back to front, so getting Ryan through the door is a great boost for us."
