Forest Green Rovers have signed Macclesfield forward D'Mani Mellor on a permanent transfer.

The 25-year-old Manchester United youth product has scored 12 goals for the Silkmen in all competitions this season and was in the team which ousted Premier League side Crystal Palace from the FA Cup in January.

He also made one appearance for United, as a substitute in the Europa League game against Astana in 2019-20.

Mellor played under current Forest Green manager Robbie Savage when he was in charge at the Leasing.com Stadium, and has league experience with loans at Salford City, Wycombe Wanderers, Rochdale and Sutton United.
