Town Move for Macclesfield Defender

Town are reported to have had a bid accepted for Macclesfield Town right-back Elliott Hewitt. The 17-year-old Wales U21 international is set to leave Moss Rose in the wake of the League Two side's relegation to the Blue Square Bet Premier.

An undisclosed offer is believed to have been accepted and Town given permission to speak to Hewitt, who is also understood to be interesting a number of other clubs, Arsenal, Everton and Chelsea having been linked earlier in the season.

Having made a single first team start in 2010/11 and becoming the Silkmen's youngest-ever player at 16 years and 342 days, the Bodelwyddan-born defender made 19 starts and five sub appearances this season.

Hewitt, who has won five U21 caps in addition to three at U17 level, missed the end of the season after undergoing hip surgery. He was expected to be fit in time for pre-season training.
