Macclesfield interested in Man Utd defender Max Taylor

Macclesfield are interested in Manchester United defender Max Taylor.

The Daily Mail says Taylor is considering a loan move to Macclesfield Town.

The 20-year-old has inspired many with his story amid his battle against testicular cancer and is now looking to kick on in his career.

He had looked set for a loan to MK Dons but, despite training with them, budget constraints meant they didn't take the deal on.

Though he played in the EFL Trophy and was on the bench for United's Europa League tie with Astana last November, United are now keen for Taylor to get greater competitive action.

Taylor signed a year's extension to his contract in May and has been hailed by coaches Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as an inspiration to the players and staff around him with the manner in which he has fought to get his life and career back on track.
