League Two leaders Macclesfield Town are set to sign Iraqi international Jassim Swadi Fayadh.

The 29-year-old left-sided midfielder was part of the Iraq national squad which toured Britain in the summer.

Fayadh scored one of the goals in Iraq's win over the National Game XI at Macclesfield's Moss Rose ground.

Jassim, whose last club was Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya, is currently training with the Silkmen and will complete a deal once the necessary paperwork is completed.
