Stuart McCall to remain at Motherwell

Motherwell boss Stuart McCall has rejected the chance to return to Sheffield United this summer.

It had widely been expected that McCall would depart Fir Park for League One, but the 48-year-old has revealed that he is "more than happy to continue" in Scotland.

"I was grateful to the board for allowing me to speak to them but I went with an open mind. I had no desire to leave Motherwell after enjoying two-and-a-half great years at the club," he said in a statement.

"There is no doubt Sheffield United are a fantastic club but, after careful consideration and deliberation, I am more than happy to continue my current role at Fir Park.

"I have built up a tremendous feeling for Motherwell, the people who work at the club and the supporters. It would take something really special to tempt me away."

McCall signed a two-year deal with Motherwell in March.
