Crewe Alexandra are delighted to announce that Callum Ainley has agreed a new two-year contract with the club.

The 23-year-old attacking midfielder, who came through the club’s academy has made 207 appearances for the club, has committed until summer 2023.

Callum, who was still at primary school when he first joined Crewe, progressed through the ranks alongside the likes of Charlie Kirk and made his debut in 2015.

Having contributed to the club’s promotion in 2019-20, the talented and creative player made 28 appearances last season but missed a spell due to injury.

Callum, who has 18 goals to his name and finished 2020-21 strongly with the winner on the final away day at Bristol Rovers, will now be looking to make a big impression in the forthcoming campaign having followed fellow midfielders Josh Lundstram and Regan Griffiths in agreeing new terms.

Everyone at Crewe Alexandra would like to congratulate Callum on his new deal and wish him all the best for the next two seasons.
