Robbie Savage is staying at Moss Rose.

The Macclesfield FC manager and director has agreed a two-year deal that will see him stay with the Silkmen until 2027.

Having achieved promotion in his first season in management, Savage had attracted a lot of interest from teams higher up the footballing pyramid.

Chairman of Macclesfield FC Robert Smethurst said: "Absolutely thrilled to be able to keep hold of Robbie despite offers from numerous clubs, the journey continues.

"Bring on the National League North!"
