Football agent for multiple Macclesfield players found dead
By Alex Greensmith 17th Dec 2021
A 32-year-old man who was the agent of former Macclesfield footballers has been found dead.
Dominic Yarwood was last seen at 7.15pm on Wednesday night.
His last known location was Woodland Grange in Worsley, Greater Manchester.
The football agent signed multiple players for Macclesfield Town FC, before they ceased to exist.
In total, Dominic signed six Silkmen between 2017 and 2020.
Greater Manchester Police in Salford confirmed his passing today at 1.23pm.
"A body's sadly been found in #Worsley in the search for Dominic Yarwood," they said.
"Formal identification hasn't taken place but we've informed Dominic's family as we believe it to be him.
"There's no suspicious circumstance and we're supporting his family at this awful time.
His football agency Elite Management released a statement shortly after his death was confirmed.
"Dom, you'll never know how much you're going to be missed," it read.
"A great friend, agent, and team member. You've helped Elite get to where it is today and it will never be the same without you around. Sending all our love and support to your family and friends."
The seven players Dominic helped sign for Macclesfield Town were as follows:
Tyrone Marsh (2017-19)
Scott Wilson (2017-19)
Jamie Grimes (2018-19)
Ben Stephens (2018-20)
Miles Welch-Hayes (2018-20)
Emmanuel Osadebe (2019-20)
Owen Evans (2019-20)
Many of these players retweeted the appeal to help find him, before his passing was confirmed.
As well as providing footballers jobs in our town, Dom also visited Macclesfield Forest for leisure.
Our thoughts are with his family at this time.
