The ex-Red lined up 150 times for Liverpool and earned his first coaching role in 2021
The 46-year-old will join Robbie Savage , who has been appointed as the new head coach along with assistant manager Peter Band. Savage had been serving as the Silkmen's director of football since 2020 but has now filled the managerial vacancy following Michael Clegg's recent mutual departure.
A statement from the club read: "Macclesfield FC can confirm that Robbie Savage has been appointed First Team Head Coach with immediate effect. As a result of achieving two promotions as well as reaching a play-off final and Isuzu FA Trophy semi-final within the Club’s first three years, it came as no surprise when Robbie was offered a senior role elsewhere recently.
"Ahead of a campaign where we simply cannot fail, Robbie will now be accountable for all First Team affairs and judged solely on results. To support him, Robbie has brought Peter Band back to the Club as Assistant Manager. Peter boasts over 1000 games worth of experience at these levels and this will be invaluable to us going forward.
