Macclesfield FC are delighted to agree terms of shot-stopper Max Johnstone from Gulf United! 

The gifted goalkeeper, formerly of Fleetwood Town, Manchester United, Sunderland, St Johnstone & AFC Fylde is eager to impress between the posts for the Silkmen, signing from the Eagles for an undisclosed fee.

Max, brother of Crystal Palace goalie Sam, moves to Macclesfield as the new number one, boasting a wealth of experience from the highest level of English football, and most recently playing a major role in Gulf’s promotion to the UAE first division in his first season with the Dubai based Club.

The 6ft5 24 year old makes his way over from the Middle East to Macclesfield during the course of the summer.

Subject to FA and league approval.
