Macclesfield teenager Vinny Mukendi has signed a two-year professional contract with the club.

The striker, 18, has started the last three matches for Macclesfield in which they have picked up seven points.

He has also attracted interest from the Welsh national set-up and is top scorer in the Macclesfield reserves.

Mukendi said: "It's great to have got myself this contract after breaking into the first team and I'm looking forward to the rest of the campaign."

He added: "Every game I play is good experience for me and I want to keep working as hard as I can to keep myself in the team week in week out and show the manager and fans what they want to see."

"Having two years means I can really get on with focusing on doing my best for Macclesfield Town with some confidence that I know where I will be.

"But in the short term, when this season's over I'm going to go away and have a good week with the family before working hard to make a real impact on the first team next season."
