Man Utd defender Taylor had Macclesfield move agreed

Manchester United defender Max Taylor has seen a loan move to Macclesfield Town fall through.

The Daily Mail says Taylor saw a proposed loan move to Macclesfield Town emerge then collapse on Wednesday.

The National League side called United in the morning to discuss taking Taylor for the season but his hopes of playing more competitive action were dashed just half an hour later when it was announced Macclesfield were being wound up after amassing over £500,000 of debt.

Taylor, 20, is now looking for a new loan destination.

The centre back has been eager to gain more game time since battling back from testicular cancer.

Taylor has shown remarkable resilience and fighting spirit to keep his career on track despite his illness and United are pushing him to gain more experience. He was part of United's Europa League squad against Astana last season.
