Following reports in the Sunday newspapers officials at the Moss Rose are remaining tight lipped about the possibility of a big name moving to the Moss Rose in the summer. After playing host earlier this season to Robbie Savage another unnamed Premiership star was spotted in the McAlpine Stand for the Silkmen's game with Mansfield at the weekend.

A source at the club said discussions were in at a very early stage and if need be they would be willing to break the club's transfer record to secure his signature. However any deal would hinge on the coming to an agreement on the salary as currently there is a slight gap between the player's demands and what the club is willing to pay.

We will of course keep you posted of any developments.
