Macclesfield midfielder Alan Navarro is facing a month on the sidelines becuase of his impending hernia surgery. The 25-year-old will have the operation on Tuesday and manager Paul Ince is
hopeful he will be able to return to play a part in the Silkmen's run-in.
He has been training through the pain for the past few weeks but will now have surgery to resolve the problem.
He is expected to back in contention to play in the last two or three games of the campaign.
